Go back and ask.: Sometimes teeth can be sensitive and remain sensitive for some time. Your time is not unusual but i don't think you dentist will feel like you are being a bother if you go back and ask about the sensitivity. The questions are....Were the fillings big or deep? Did something break? Anything else you may want to know.

Return for a visit: Depending upon the condition of the teeth prior to treatment, filling material used, or the reaction of the teeth to treatment, having sensitive teeth after two months may be within the normal healing time. Is sensitivity lessening with time? Return to your dentist for a reevaluation of your "bite" or the nerve which may not be responding as desired thus requiring root canal treatment.

Yes: Check back with your dentist. It is possible that the bite needs to be adjusted to allow them not to hit too hard. Also, they might have been very deep and close to nerve tissue. Sometimes they take longer to heal and are sensitive longer, other times, they cannot heal and may require root canal therapy.

Certainly: Is the sensitivity getter worse, better, or the same? It certainly warrants a return visit to your dentist to have the teeth evaluated. Although not the norm, sometimes teeth need longer to repair themselves in order for the sensitivity to subside. However, something may be wrong and require further treatment or adjustments either on these teeth or adjacent ones.
