How can I tell if I had a cavity filled? I thought all I had was a cleaning. My insurance co. sent me a statement saying that I had a cleaning and fillings - 3 surfaces. Again, how can I tell if he filled the cavity?

I might be wrong but most of the patients I see would know that they had a filling done. The dentist should have informed you that you had a cavity and that he/she was going to fill it for you on a previous check up visit along with the cleaning. Also the hand piece (Drill) would have been some kind of clue as to what was going on. I'd be inclined to contact your dentist and ask them to confirm that you had a filling.
