Tooth Ache?

" Yes not to long ago, I had got my teeth filled, and omg everything was alright with my right side, but as soon as my left side was filled, thats when it all went down hill. Now one of my tooths sting. everytime I eat or drink something cold. And on top of that, to make matters even worse, I've been drinking some juice, and I think one of my tooths that got filled has a whole in it. Because the liquid travels into my mouth and when it gets around the tooth, it feels like a drain, like the juice is going down and it hurts really bad.. crying . I don't know what to do, and I don't want to go back to the dentist. "

Tooth Ache?
it could b that the filling didn't seal properly, especially if you had a tooth colored filling. u have to go back or at least go to another dentist to see what's going on. if it was a deep filling, your nerve may b irritated. some amount of sensitivity is normal for a couple weeks.

Reply:You really need to go back to your dentist. It could be that the filling has fallen out or that the filling has caused the nerve in your tooth to become inflamed. Either way, only your dentist can fix it.
Reply:oh hunny go back to the dentist and get tha checked

poor babe

Reply:get so toothpaste for sensitive teeth and gums and brush three times a day. Your tooth should feel better in about a week. The whole hole in the tooth thing needs to be checked out by a dentist. If there is indeed a hole and liquid is draining in there it could get infected and you will be in a lot more pain.





Good luck and bursh harder.
Reply:Sometimes if a filling was very deep or large it can cause sensitivity. Also, sometimes the filling might be a little high and banging on it with your other teeth can case you pain. If after a week the pain does not go away you should go back to your dentist.
Reply:1. do you actually feel a hole with your tongue where you say it feels like one and 2 the pain from the feeling of cold can be alleviated by using some toothpastes designed for sensitive teeth.





I believe you do need to contact the dentist to ask why you are feeling this way or call another dentist for a second opinion if you feel you will get the run around from the first.
Reply:You need to go back to the dentist immediately. You can expect some sensitivity, depending on the depth of the cavity preparation, (how deep he drilled), but he should have used a coating to reduce sensitivity before filling.





Another possibility is that depending on your eating habits, you could have caused enough stress to the filling, causing tiny fractures. This can happen when you eat something hot, and the cold, immediately, or if you chew ice, grind your teeth, etc.





In any case, the dentist should be able to determine the cause with a simple exam, and replace the filling if need be.
