Answer 1

no it is not dentist mistake it your teeth that is know fully finished by cavity now there is only 1 way is to take it off after that you feel relax & there will be no more pain

i was a regular patient of this dentistry for about 3 year no 1 knows better about the teeth more than me

Answer 2

I know what you mean, i got a couple a few days ago and they are super duper sensitive. i think its just like that until you get used to it.

Answer 3

If it is the new composite fillings, then this is totally normal. Some pain can last up to 3 months. These fillings are great, because they blend in so well with the tooth, but they can be a pain because, well, they can cause pain! If it was a deep cavity, then that is another reason it could be causing you pain. I wouldn't worry about it. If it hurts that bad, I would drink through a straw, and take an Advil or Tylenol.
