<p>I got a cavity filled a few weeks ago. It never really bothered me unless I had something sugary. Now whenever I have any liquid it hurts like hell. And I drink a lot of water, juice and milk in a day, so it is always hurting. Is this normal? I've had a few filled cavities in the past and none have done this. Any of you experience this?</p>
<p>Same here! I went to the dentist yesterday about it. Apparently, if the cavity reopens or the filling falls out, this is very likely. However, that was not the case for me. They didn’t know exactly what had gone wrong but figured there must be some minute opening in the filling they couldn’t see so they put a sealant over it and gave me toothpaste for sensitive teeth. It’s not perfect yet, but it’s gotten better. Definitely see someone for it though.</p>
<p>I’m calling tomorrow. But it didn’t hurt nearly this bad before I got it filled. Now that it’s filled it hurts twice as bad. I can’t drink a thing. Food doesn’t really bother it because it’s in the wrong tooth for that, but it’s really weird.</p>
<p>Tell me if you’re able to get it to stop hurting. Mine’s still a little painful. For me, its anything with a temperature significantly different from that of my mouth, so both food and drink, but pretty much all drink are painful because they’re cold. Good luck!</p>
<p>Sometimes you will experience lingering sensitivity after bigger fillings are done. Like CranberryOrange said, a toothpaste for sensitive teeth will usually remedy this. More than likely, your issue is not anything more serious than this.</p>
<p>My last filling (I had four cavities. Two done one day a week later another two were done) the first two were bigger than the last ones and the ones are the ones that hurt. The first two were sensitive but cope-able. These are painful!</p>
