Is getting a white filling at the back or your tooth sore?

I am going to get a white filling put in the back of my tooth.
Is it sore people who have experienced it?

It should not be a problem, but with many fillings (silver or white) the nerve will get irritated as part of the drilling process. If it is sensitive it should be more so at first and then progressively better. If you do have sensitivity and it doesn’t go away have the dentist check the bite to make sure it isn’t too high. Good luck

  2. It is no worse than a silver filling but can take longer to settle down and can be more sensitive for a few days
