What if hobbit has a filling?

As many of you know the hobbit may show some evidence of a filling in one of its molars.Im not about to argue yes it is or no its not.I dont think it can be confirmed or not at this time.If its true what effect do you think it would have on the credibility of modern dating methods?And does anybody know which dating methods were used?

It does appear to be just a crack in the tooth.IMO.And i did read an article by the scientist who did the ex-rays on it and he said its probabily just calcite(I think thats right)deposits that the fossil was found in.Although i may be completely wrong and it may be a filling.What im realy having a hard time with are the conclusions.Hobbit is a decendant of Homo erectus,Hobbit is a decendant of Astralopithicus,Hobbit is a modern human with microcephaly,Hobbit is an ape,Hobbit is a pygmy with bad teeth.Anyone willing to wager that its actually an extra-terrestrial?(hahaha).Perhaps a future DNA sample will finaly settle the matter.

I dont know who the bones actualy belong to,but i think everyone should have access to them.The reason the piltdown hoax continued for forty years was because scientist only had access to plaster reproductuions that didnt show the file marks found on the original.
