Question:

I have a couple fillings inbetween 2 molars and it hurts a little when I floss there and it shreds the floss.?

My dentist checked the fillings and said it looks okay and there is no problems. What could be causing it?

Answers:

Hi KC,

I suggest you go back to your dentist, as it sounds like your fillings need adjusting. It should be simple enough for the dentist to do, as he/she will file/smooth the fillings at the points where it seems to be shreding the floss.

Fillings can be sensitive, but I would visit your dentist again and express your concerns.

Keep smiling.
