A member asked:
If the dentist accidentally nicked a nerve while doing a fill-in will the pain eventually go away?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dental Filling: Your dentist placed a restoration in your tooth, probably deep. That's why you have pain. How long ago? An hour, a day, a week, or a month? Makes a big difference. If you have any questions regarding this, your best advisor is your own dentist. They know this tooth better than anyone over the internet.
