Eroded: Enamel perhaps, try sensitive toothpaste and mouthwash for a while, no improvements talk to your dentist.

Recurrent Decay: It is possible that you could have more decay around the fillings that were placed a few months back. Additionally, it is possible that one or more of the fillings has loosened allowing leakage and sensitivity. Get back to your dentist for an evaluation. Remember that fillings don't last forever!
