How big was the cavity? Did you actually have that checked by a dentist?

Also while I agree that the best is not to get the cavity in the first place, what do you do once you have it? What is the latest technology in filler material and treatment?

It was minor, not checked by a dentist.

I don't know about the latest tech, unfortunately. The doctor I worked with is a maxillofacial surgeon; any case requiring fillings would probably get referred to a regular dentist!
