Why does my old filling suddenly hurt?

Many patients are surprised when a tooth that was treated years ago starts hurting again. Over time, fillings can wear down, develop tiny gaps, or the tooth may develop new decay around the restoration. Sometimes a cracked filling or changes in the bite can also cause discomfort. A clinical examination and digital X-ray help identify the cause so the right treatment can be recommended—whether that’s replacing the filling or, in some cases, another procedure to protect the tooth. Early evaluation often means simpler treatment. 📍 Chennai Dental Mission – Anna Nagar, Chennai 📞 7358733008 Related Dental Services Dental Fillings Chennai • Tooth Pain Anna Nagar • Replacement Fillings • Root Canal Assessment • Digital Dental X-ray • Family Dentist Chennai • Dental Clinic Anna Nagar • Preventive Dentistry
