So I got 2 cavities filled 2 weeks ago.And I got one filled on the other side of my mouth last february by a different dentist. The older one started making my tooth really sensitive on the right side of my mouth, so i have been chewing on the left since feb. And it kinda hurts when i drink anything hot or cold. I ahve been using sensodyne toothpaste and sometimes it helps a little. Well now on my left side a have sensitivity since saturday. (btw I did tell the dentist about the other one and he said it was because I had a filling and they sometimes do that.) So now it hurts to chew on both sides of my mouth. And whenever I drink anything it hurts. So I havn't really been drinking or eating anything. i ahd yogurt, but it was cold and hurt, but I made myself eat it. Im not sure what to do....Im kinda hungry...
ETA: Im having room temperture water right now and that isn't really hurting so I am drinking water!

just try to eat things at room temperature. If you want to eat a yogurt for example, take it out of the fridge a little while before you want to eat it, so its not as cold. Trust me I sympathize with you, i am going through the same thing. Try eating mashed potatoes that will help, it was so easy for me to eat. I wasnt able to really chew meat, but then didnt help bc i was eating things like pasta lol, or eggplant parm since its soft lol.

denise what is up with us and dental stuff lately??? LOL! mashed potatos sounds like a great idea! maybe thats what I'll have for dinner. I cant eat anything that I need to chew. I even tried having soft bread last ngiht and it hurt!!! I just hope this goes away! The one tooth has been like this since february. I cant live off mashed potatos. LOL. I guess I'll ahve to go back to the dentist, but Im not sure what he can do about it...

I agree with mashed potatoes or room temperature soup. At least you will get more nutrients then with just water. If worse comes to worse drink a room temperature ensure so that your body has something to work off.

oh god the worst part is that i am there like once a week and i still have alot more work to do. Also S*CKS bc its like i can go in to get a mold for my tooth but then i have to wait until a certain date to go back to get a crown put on, i have to wait for the insurance company to approve every little thing. I CANT wait until it is all over.
Also soup helps alot. This past saturday I had a filling on top left tooth and going back for a crown but since it was filled i was able to finally chew, bc also had a bottom tooth filled so i was able to eat on left side a bit, well for now. Like i said, pasta helps too lol

Re: not a good diet...
good idea on the pasta and soup!! Pasta is probably better for dinner than mashed potatos. LOL. I was so mad cus I used my kitchen aid ice ceram maker attachment for the first time and I tasted it and it hurt so much!!! DH said it was good though- But I wanna try it! I love ice cream! Im also thinking I may be able to do eggs....
ETA: btw densie, do you ever get sick or headaches from the smell of the dentist office? Or does anyone else? Literally Im sick everytime I leave one!
