I had a filling put in an adult molar 2 weeks ago. i ate a twix bar and now the filling is causing pain when drinking ice water. what caused this?

One of 2 likely: Either your tooth cracked--making it more sensitive to hot/cold. Or, your dentist did not get all the cavity out and you now need a root canal. Need to follow up with dentist to see which is which, as both will worsen.
