Do pits in teeth need to be filled?
To answer to your question, it depends how good are your hygiene is. If you can keep up with good hygiene and there is no sign of decay, then you don’t have to do the filling there. However, if it bothers you every time you eat some soft diet like biscuits or cake, it always stay down there and you have to clean really hard for it, then you can do the filling. If there is sign of discolored area, then you need to pay attention to it; if it gets more darker, then do the filling, so the answer is, it depends on the individual preference. Good luck, Dr. Vu READ MORE
Is it bad to have a gap between your teeth?
Yes, it is bad to have a gap between teeth. First, other teeth will move around, which will change your biting function and sometimes will cause discomfort for the joint of your jaw.
