A member asked:
I got 3 fillings 2 weeks ago and my teeth have been sensitive to cold since then. i feel pain for a few minutes after drinking a cold drink. normal??

Fillings: Depending on the depth of filling, restorative material, bite , recession of gums etc teeth can be sensitive post treatment. Lingering sensitivity is not an encouraging sign, however if the time of linger is diminishing thats's more encouraging, if getting worse or concerned, contact your dentist

No worry: Fortunately, tooth sensitivity to cold after a filling should improve on its own after a few weeks.
