Great question, "Fromabove"...
the answer to your question: "If sealants can trap bacteria beneath them then why cant fillings do the same thing? " is...THEY DO. Its a phenomenon known as "microleakage". Silver filling material, over time, will actually "shrink" causing a crevice between the edge of the filling material and the tooth. Sometimes the "gaps" are so big that we can actually SEE them! Plaque and food debris become lodged in this area and this is what causes the problem. We check for decay by using our little "tooth picker" Oh MY and press down fairly hard into the space/edge. If the instrument "sticks", there is probably decay present. Now, the OTHER problem with microleakage and "shrinking" of fillings is that they greatly weaken the tooth structure many times leading the way to cracks/fractures and broken teeth and fillings.

Keep the questions comin' folks. I'm thinkin' of starting a new "career". FREE OF CHARGE for now though.
