hi there,

i have a question about cavities between teeth (like the one in
www.aboutsmiles.org/photo_3to6/xray.gif

i suppose a dentist drills the area between the teeth to remove the
decayed material and then fills it in.is it usual practise to leave a
gap in the filling for flossing or is one filling between the two teeth
normally done?

if you have two teeth connected in this way and need to extract one in
the future how does the dentist seperate them? is there a filling
cutter?

thanks,
Konrad
