My filling is sensitive; anything I can do to lessen this?!


Question: My filling is sensitive; anything I can do to lessen this!?
I got a filling about two months ago and over the past few weeks it's gotten extremely sensitive to hot and cold liquids!.

My bite is fine but where cavity was, they had to get rid of some of the tooth and replace it with the filling so, my root is being covered a little by the filling instead of natural teeth!.

Um!. I have another dental apointment this month for tooth pits to be filled and for another look at my wisdome teeth!.

So in the meantime before I go, I'd like to know if there's anything I can do to lessen the uncomfortable sensation!.Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Try to avoid getting anything too hot or cold close to it for a while would be the simple answer!. So chew on the opposite side, eat lukewarm or room temperature foods or something easy like that!. They're usually just temporary things!.
Or, if you'd like, you could also go looking at a supermarket or chemist to see if they have toothpaste or mouthwash that are made for pain relief or tooth sensitivity!.
And since you have an appointment coming up, you won't have to wait too long!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

get a good dollop of sensitive toothpaste and rub it all over your tooth, use it to brush regularly and it should settle down!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Get Sensitive Toothpaste!. It's for people with sensitive teeth!. I used to have the same problem with my filling but since I've used that it doesn't hurt anymore! :]Www@Answer-Health@Com
