It depends on the type of filling used. The old silver fillings are amalgam. They're a Mercury, silver, copper, and tin mixture. The second, Composite fillings, are a synthetic resin created in a lab by scientists.

What is the pun in this sentence- an epitaph which reads here lies a dentist who is filling his last cavity?

The pun in the epitaph lies in the double meaning of the word "filling." In dentistry, "filling" refers to the process of repairing a cavity in a tooth, while in the context of the epitaph, it humorously implies that the dentist has passed away and is now metaphorically "filling" his final resting place. This clever wordplay blends the dentist's profession with the concept of death in a lighthearted manner.
