If you have a cavity, your dentist is going to treat it in different ways depending upon the size of the cavity, the depth of the cavity, and how much tooth structure has been lost because of this cavity. So the resolution for this cavity may be a small filling, it may be a large filling, it may be an inlay which is a large filling made in a laboratory, or it may be a crown which covers the entire tooth and is also made in a laboratory. Treatment will vary depending upon the severity of the cavity.
