Sounds like you have one of the same problems that I have...the old fillings rattling their way loose and having to be replaced by modern, hi-tech stuff.
On one of the last ones, my dentist did some very detailed digital photos of the recently vacated area and that got fed into the computer. The computer then controlled a machine in another room that machined an exact fit for the hole out of some new dental material that matched the color of the tooth exactly and when it was done he epoxied it into place.
Neat, huh?
But I forgot to ask him ahead of time just what this was going to cost and whether my insurance was going to pay for it...ouch-a-ma-goucha-ma!
Still, should future anthropologists find my skull, they will, no doubt, be mighty impressed...
