Can a cavity under the cap be repaired
I have a bridge with 4 caps and 4 teeth in between the caps. One tooth stump rotted and had to be removed. Another stump feels sensitive and I want to get it repaired before it also rots. Is this possible? I can't afford a new bridge with implants for $15,000.00. I am 74 years old Please help. Sincerely yours, Marilyn Ostalkiewicz

Hi Marilyn
Yes a cavity can be repaired under a cap or bridge. Go and see the dentist as soon as you can, like you said before it becomes too late and need to be removed. The dentist will take a x-ray and determine what is need to be done. Don't wait too long.
Good Luck
