Q. Dear Dr. Lerner, I recently relocated to PBG. The local dentist I saw said I have a surface cavity on #2, surface cracked filling on #18, and need a porcelin/ceramic onlay on #31. I received a second opinion from another local dentist who said I have no cavities, no cracked filling, and should not have an onlay. I dont want unnecessary drilling and I dont want to let a cavity foster. How can I determine which opinion to follow?

A. Thank you for your inquiry.  Unfortunately, since you have two conflicting opinions there is no way to determine which to follow.  If you would like, contact our office and speak with Robin to schedule an appointment for an examination. Thank you, Dr. Lemongello
