Toothache (pulling) when chewing – what is it?
Hello, about a week ago I was at the dentist for a filling. Since that day, it hurts between two teeth when chewing. Since this was also the case with light things at the beginning, I went to the doctor again on Monday. This has sanded the filling (plastic) again a little. After that it was a little bit better. Now I could chew delicate things and even when I grit my teeth, they no longer hurt. But since it was not completely gone and the tooth still hurt with hard things, I went to the ZA again on Tuesday. This cut a little more. However, it didn’t improve much, just a little bit. I also have to say that (despite anesthesia), I had a pull (small amount of pain) on this tooth while drilling on the tooth while the doctor gave me the filling. Now I’m still in pain when I chew very hard things on this tooth. I can also press on the tooth itself, it doesn’t hurt either. It really only hurts when I floss between the affected tooth and the tooth next door, for example. Could it be that the tooth nerve was irritated and now has to subside? In terms of time, this somehow seems a bit much to me, after all, almost two weeks have passed since the filling. I hope you can help me?
