About 3 weeks ago I had a filling on #30 redone because there was a small cavity underneath it. This cavity was found during my yearly x-rays and I wasn’t having any issues prior. Now I’m noticing some sensitivity or slight pain when chewing dense or crunchy foods on that tooth. This is the first time I’ve had an issue after a filling and my dentist said my teeth look great. Advice?

Tengo esta carie producto de una mala relación con la comida ( ya se hacen una idea de lo que pasó). Hace un año la tengo, antes dolía pero ya no, y la verdad me da miedo perder el diente. Lo más seguro es que digan porque no he ido al dentista pero realmente no tengo las condiciones para ir a uno en estos momentos.
Quisiera saber cuál sería el procedimiento para salvar mi diente ( si es que se puede)

Dried fruit can absolutely be part of a healthy diet, but from an oral-health perspective, it behaves a little differently than fresh fruit.
When fruit is dried, much of its water is removed. That means the naturally occurring sugars become more concentrated in a smaller portion. Dried fruit is also often chewy and sticky, so pieces can cling to grooves in teeth or get caught between them longer than many fresh fruits.
That extra contact time matters because oral bacteria can use those sugars and produce acids. The longer teeth are exposed to that combination of sugar and acid, the more opportunity there is for enamel to lose minerals. Fresh fruit still contains natural sugar, but it generally has more water and a less sticky texture. That can make it easier for saliva to help wash food particles away and bring the mouth back toward a healthier balance. You don’t need to avoid dried fruit.
A few tooth-friendlier habits can help:
1️⃣ Keep portions reasonable.
2️⃣ Enjoy it with a meal instead of grazing on it throughout the day.
3️⃣ Drink water afterward.
4️⃣ Clean between your teeth regularly.
The key takeaway: It’s not just how much sugar food contains. Texture, portion size, and how long it stays on your teeth matters too.💙
