Sensitivity on newly prepared teeth is not uncommon. Address your issues and concerns with your treating dentist before treatment continues.

So many possibilities. Your Dentist is responsible for your post-surgical (Yes, bridge preparation is a surgical procedure). As he/she has evaluated you pre-procedure, he/she is best prepared to resolve any post-procedure complications.
