Need a filling how big will it be
So I been having a tooth issue lately and notice it has a brown spot with a little hole. Okay I did not brush my teeth so well and I know that I am paying the price for that now. I am brushing now like three times a day and I also floss when I remember to do so.
I made a dental appointment for a week from now but I was wonder how big is the filling going to be for a little hole? Will it be the complete tooth or just were the hole is? I really do not like going to the dentist so I would like to have some information on what to expect.

The filling will only be as big as needed. The dentist will not drill away any part of the tooth unnecessary. Just get it fixed and continue to take good care of your teeth so you hopefully will not have to worry about another cavity.
