If the dentist did no longer do an x-ray of your tooth at your final appointment that's probable that dental caries/the tooth decay had occured interior the dentine under the filling. this would be difficult to verify with the bare eye and so the dentist on no account observed it. Now that the caries has better you're feeling gentle soreness. In between fillings and tooth is the place caries can ensue/stay maximum effectively. i'm purely a dental student and so would be incorrect yet no rely what you're able to pass decrease back on your dentist and tell him approximately it, noticeably whether that's senstvie to warm and chilly. If allowed to progression this would bring about an infection and finally the destruction of the pulp, which ability the loss of life of that the tooth. this would propose the two having yet another root canal or worse, an extraction. PLEASE SEE YOUR DENTIST AS he would be responsive to extra desirable than ME approximately IT. i'm purely GIVING MY OPINION ON WHAT i think of is faulty yet having mentioned that< IM purely a DENTAL student. a qualified DENTIST provide you appropriate education!!!!!!!!!!!!

you really should get registered in case you need a Dentist urgently. Also a lot cheaper than waiting till its an emergency.could be a nerve exposed because u chipped it. often people recommend putting an aspirin on it but it doesnt work as aspirin needs to be absorbed into the bloodstream for it to become effective.

look in phone book for NHS phone number, they will tell you what dentists in your area are taking on new patients, get registered. Good luck.
Perhaps a doctor could help? emergency referral or something. You need to get this checked, no good just taking pain killers..the whole point of pain is that its your body telling you something is wrong.

Go into any dentist and ask for advice. You'll probably have to go private if you haven't registered for NHS though.

You can use Clove Oil dabbed on cotton wool.
Try a pain killer with codeine...
but you really need to find a dentist as you may need anti biotics
