There is no natural remedy for teeth cavities to heal because tooth is the only structure of the body that does not show healing. So cavity once formed will remain static at best, or increase in size in terms of width and depth. No home remedy will work for this either other than providing temporary symptomatic relief without curing the problem permanently.
The doctor who has performed the clinical examination is the best judge to decide the treatment plan and you need to trust his opinion for that. Wisdom teeth are considered non functional otherwise and when they are affected by Cavitation also it will be best to remove them for permanent relief of your symptoms.
Regards.
