After New Fillings

What to Do After

Do call our office if your new fillings are sensitive to hot, cold or if you are experiencing pain in the tooth. This could be an indication that your filling may need to be adjusted.

Eating

You can enjoy all your favorite foods after the numbness has gone away.
