Safely as soon as the numbing medication wears off you can eat (otherwise you may bite your tongue and not know it)
You can drink immediately, but if your lips are numb, use a straw.

You can eat and drink normally within and hour or two of having had your fillings done.

2-3 hours, wait till the numbing wears off. But I wouldn't chew on that side for a day or two.

Can drink right away and can eat within an hour, but maybe not on that side.

I had a filling the other week. I got told that there is no time limit, just around 10 minutes.

You can eat as soon as the anaesthetic wares off.

30 minutes after you are done. You have to give them time to set!
