I got this cavity filled:
It was actually fine, a little cold sensitivity, until the end of week 2.
But I definitely over did it with flossing between those teeth (after every meal, about 5 times a day).
Eventually after so much flossing, I went to floss and got very noticeable pressure sensitivity (which I never got after the filling for the two week period).
That has gone, but cold sensitivity is very apparent now.
Is it possible all that excess flossing irritated the nerve, and now I have heightened cold sensitivity? (no sensitivity to heat or warm fluids, only cold)
This is the inside and outside of the filled tooth, pics taken today on my camera phone.
I hardly displaced or debonded some of the filling with all that flossing, and that's causing the sensitivity?
Any idea what might be happening here?
Again, only very minor cold sensitivity two weeks after the filling, but after going heavy with flossing, pressure and cold sensitivity eventually emerged.
