What Could Be The Reason For Having Sensitivity In Teeth, Hurting In Shoulder And Neck After Teeth Filling?

I recently had three fillings done to the bottom right side of my teeth. After the fillings, I was experiencing pain and hot and cold sensitivity to the area. The pain is finally gone but the senitivity is still there and now for the pass few days the right side of my neck and shoulder is hurting. What is causing my neck and shoulder pain?

Hi,

Thanks for asking the query,

I would suggest you to get an x-ray done of the filled tooth.
There could be presence of caries beneath the restoration or the cavity would be deep.
If so get the tooth restored.


Take care!
