Now that you had dental fillings these are the things that you may notice after treatment  

What you may experience temporarily depending on the depth of fillings

·      You may experience discomfort in the gums around the teeth treated 

·      You may experience sensitivity to hot or cold, food or drinks, on the teeth treated

·      The teeth treated may be a little tender to chew on

·      If needed, consider 1-2 Panadol as required and warm salt water rinses

·      These symptoms may last 7-14 days

·      But this must be a reducing basis
