Cavity between 2 teeth

2017-07-22 04:47:18
I have been having a slight gap between 2 premolars for the last 4-5 years. I have been flossing daily night and morning (after breakfast)) to maintain the gap in a clean manner. But last 2 months I had not been careful in cleaning and brushing daily in the night. 1 week back I noticed that there is a deep cavity between the 2 teeth. It is on the edge of one teeth. I have no pain or tingling sensation as of now. The tooth beside the one with cavity has a cap. What is the best long term solution? A cap or a bridge?
