Hi there! I recently did a check-up and x-ray at my dentist’s office and I have a few cavities in my mouth that need fillings. Two of them are on the lower right side. These two are also slightly chipped teeth. My dentist said that the damage isn’t too severe but said I need a crown. I prefer trying to repair them by getting new fillings.

Fillings are definitely more conservative (less drilling). Depending on the size of the filling and chipping, a crown may be needed. Keep in mind that crowns make the dentist more money so hopefully you trust him or her.
