Fillings

  • Do not eat on your new filling for one hour and until your numbness is gone.
  • If you are supervising children who have had fillings done, make sure they don’t bite on their numb lips or tongue (it can cause serious injury to their soft tissue).
  • Do not bite hard or chew on silver amalgam fillings for 24 hours.
  • You may experience cold and heat sensitivity and some soreness on your gum, this usually subsides in few days.
  • Call our office if you experience pain or discomfort for more than a few days after the fillings, or if you have any questions.
