I just had my stitches taken out because I had osseous surgery and bone graft surgery my periodontists said to wait two weeks to get a filling on an already existing tooth as the gum and teeth need time to heal he said to get periodontal surgery first before fixing the cavity as gum will be more healthy to fill it.
my question is does the cavity look big I hope it’s still fixable with just a filling.?
I just want a filling Im hoping it’s not a root canal and a crown I don’t feel any sensitive on it with hot and cold or when I bite down on it.

Good day

At this stage the cavity does not appear to be close to the nerve and since you don't have any symptoms, most likely only a filling will be necessary.
