I had deep filling & am having on/off pain in tooth #19. it looks like theres a bit of a dark spot under the filling. was it all not cleaned? no liner

Deep Restoration: More often than not deep restorations result in sensitive teeth. Your dentist is probably trying to avoid root canal therapy. How long ago was the tooth restored? Pain with cold foods, or pain without any stimulus? Have your dentist re-evaluate
