There are also new and different ways to prepare a cavity for a filling. Lasers are a fairly new tool in dentistry. They have been used for several years on soft tissues, like the gums. Some dentists are starting to use lasers in place of drills to remove tooth decay. Lasers work best on decay close to the tooth's surface. Over the next few years, lasers will likely be refined and more dentists may be using them instead of drills. Air abrasion is another new way to remove tooth decay.

There is no additional charge when the dentist uses the laser for a filling procedure. The cost of the filling is determined by the size, number of surfaces, and the material used for the filling.

Primary teeth have very thin enamel compared to the permanent teeth. For this reason, they do not hold big fillings well. "Big fillings" are repairs to large cavities on two or more sides of the tooth on first primary molars, and three or more sides on the second primary molars. Additionally, children who grind their teeth at night break their fillings much more rapidly. Stainless steel crowns hold up much better under these circumstances.

Try using Half and Half, or even better, use Heavy Cream. You can always dilute Heavy Cream with water to make it thinner if you want to. There are also powdered low carb milk products on the market. For hot cereals I prefer a little heavy cream, but for cold cereals my choice is Hoods Milk because it only has 3 grams of carbs per 8 oz. Soy milk is another option.

When there are cavities in between teeth, the best and most conservative restoration is an onlay. An onlay seals the tooth better than any conventional filling and also attains the best contact thereby reducing the need for replacement in the future.
