And now Here are Some better Chewing Tips to follow After A Filling

After you get a filling in one or more of your teeth, soreness and sensitivity may persist for hours, or even days. This can make eating and drinking an uncomfortable affair.

Watch What You Chew : avoid chewing with the side of your mouth that holds the temporary filling.

Luckily, By avoiding some foods that can cause trouble after fillings, you can considerably reduce discomfort:

1. Chew slowly and bite lightly
2. Keep your mouth closed when chewing
3. Skip sticky foods
4. Avoid very hot or cold drinks
5. Pass on the sweets
6. Don’t chew nuts, hard candy, or ice

Always follow Dr.Thomas Nechupadam’s recommendations regarding chewing tips.

What foods to avoid after your procedure?

How long you should wait to eat solid foods after receiving softer filling materials?

If  your teeth remain sensitive for several weeks after a filling, or if pain increases over time, consult with dentist to explore the causes and possible solutions. Sometimes a minor and painless adjustment, such as filing down a raised area, is all that is needed to relieve the pain. In other cases, the sensitivity could be a sign of a more serious issue.
