I get my teeth cleaned 3 times a year. Every time, they always ask me if I want my wisdom teeth removed.
Thing is, I'm 55, and have never had a problem with them or because of them. Extraction is clearly a bread winner for them since they ask the same question every time.
The other bread winner, which thankfully I've only had one time (as a kid), is the "pre-cavity" where they dig it out more and then add filling.
This ignores the fact that minor pitting is common, and pretty much a daily occurrence - every time you chew something hard or crunchy, and sometimes from vigorous brushing. As long as it doesn't go too deep, the outer layer fills it in by itself. The inner layers can't, but that won't stop them from trying to fill in the ones that aren't a problem.
