Risks
Tooth sensitivity following placement of a filling is quite popular - A tooth might be sensitive to temperature, air, pressure, or sweet foods. Typically, the sensitivity subsides on its own within several days. Within this time, stay away from those things, which are triggering the sensitivity. Pain relievers are usually not needed.
Pain around the fillings - If you have pain when you bite, the filling might be interfering with your bite. You must return to the dentist and have your filling reshaped. If you have pain when your teeth touch, the discomfort is probably due to the touching of two different metal surfaces, and ought to resolve on its own within a short time frame.
Referred pain – It is sensitivity or pain in other teeth apart from the one which got the filling. The filled tooth is just transmitting along the so called "pain signals" it's getting to other teeth. This pain ought to reduce on its own over one or two weeks.
