If its not coming from your dental work(which is the probable cause) then it could be appendicitis. Many people get a metallic taste in their mouth when the appendix starts to fill with pus. If the dentist isn't helping then see your Doctor...or hit the ER and see if anyone there can help you.

A metallic taste can sometimes come out after regurgitation. Have you recently thrown up?
Stomach acid in the mouth can often taste metallic afterwards.
Another possibility is brain damage. But hopefully it's not that.

It has to be from the dental work. Did the dentist say that you will have to get use to it? He should be answering your questions, he is your doctor. You may have to go somewhere else.

are you taking a perscription drug that may have interacted with the drugs used for your dental work? many perscription drugs cause metallic taste in the mouth.

Sounds as though yu have a viral infection...that is symptom number one in guessing it....make sure it is not strep or staff...but the viral part you simply have to wait out.

It may have nothing to do with dentistry. You may try asking your medical doctor. Do you have OCD? that is another cause.
