i had a white filling about a month ago now.
before i had this filling, i had no trouble at all. infact, i was quite shocked i needed one as the tooth i had the filling on had never hurt previously!
however, now, the bloody thing is so so sensitive. is this normal?
it hurts to drink anything hot/cold, sugary and jeeze, even the wind hurts it! its really annoying.
i can't really afford to go back again yet

I though the NHS payment covered all work in a period?
they'll probably charge me again.
It's worth ringing up to check, like Fruit Loop said.
And, how come dental care costs money for adults??

NHS charges are for a course of treatment, and I believe that a course of treatment is defined as not needing any further work within 3 months, so you should be able to go back now with a problem with a recent filling and it be covered under the charge you already paid (assuming it was NHS).
i've got an appointment booked....28th april so i've gotta put up with the pain until then because thats the next available appointment :grump:
