On one of my teeth that was filled, it's kind of sensitive like when you scrape something on it and when I swish water in my mouth it feels kind of cold.

Open your mouth and look for a hole in your tooth.

You probably have tooth sensativity - use Sensodyne. You must visit a densit every 6 months. Good dental hygiene is important, plus you may have cavities elsewhere that you are not aware of. If you do, it is best to take care of it right away.
Cavities may not always have obvious symptoms right away. Some signs are pain, discomfort, and odor. The only real way of telling is to go have x-rays done.

fillings will tend to be sensitive to hot/cold extremes. it should diminish with time.
If you are still having a problem with it past two weeks go back to the dentist. he may have missed some decay and will have to redo it. I had that happen myself recently. It shows up on x-ray as a dark spot against the lighter gray of the filling.
