My ums behind fake tooth hurt after getting a silver metal filling! help please?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See your dentist: Depending upon how long ago the filling was placed, this could be a sign of needing to be smoothed and polished. This simple procedure could help decrease the irritation to the gums. Return to the practitioner who placed the filling for an evaluation.
