Back to the topic of dentists finding everything wrong...I'm fortunate enough to have had only one filling on one of my molars. The last time I went in for a check-up, I was told that my silver filling needed to be replaced. I'm not sure if it did or not.. it felt fine to me. Nevertheless, the DDS drilled it out (of which the thought still makes me shudder and cringe) and replaced it with resin (?). It's been about 2 years now, and that darned tooth has never felt the same. It hurts to chew on that side now. I've gone back to the dentist NUMEROUS times to have it ground down (was told the bite wasn't quite right), but after 4 or 5 times gave up. Apropos, they charged me every time I went back. Cosmetically, the tooth looks better, but I wish I had my stury silver amalgum.
