Hi,

First question: I have several slightly decayed area's on my teeth along the
gumline, they aren't cavities yet but the dentist expects them to become
cavities in a couple of years.
Is it a good idea to have such area's filled with composite to prevent
future decay and for cosmetics?
Can such filling near the gumline irritate the gums or cause recession?

Second question: I have 2 between the teeth cavities one in a lower canine
one in a lower bicuspid. Usually they treat such cavities by drilling from
the healthy top of the tooth down to the decayed part between the teeth.
Is there a method which requires less destruction of healthy tooth, maby
removing a filling in another tooth to get access to the cavity on the side?

Really apreciate your answers,

Thanks, Hans
