Well, three years is still three years, and good oral hygiene isn't a foolproof defense.
At least you don't have three crowns to look forward to. My "wake up and go to the damn dentist" moment involved three crowns and two other major fillings that took the better part of three months and a quarter of my after tax income for that year. :) Oddly, the tooth that hurt and caused me to go to the dentist in the first place was fine. Apparently, being next to a hollow shell of decay can make a healthy tooth's nerves twinge.
