🦷 Can You Get Cavities Under Fillings?
Yes! Even with a filling, decay can form around or beneath it if bacteria sneak in. This usually happens when:
- Fillings wear down or crack
- Plaque builds up around the edges
- Oral hygiene isn’t consistent
Prevention tips:
✅ Brush twice daily with fluoride toothpaste
✅ Floss carefully around fillings
✅ Limit sugary snacks
✅ See your dentist regularly
Old fillings don’t stop new cavities — keeping your teeth clean is key! 😁
