Can I Have My Tooth Polished So It Doesn’t Feel Rough?

Q.
Hi. I had a filling done on my tooth and the dentist put a clamp over it and scratched the surface, leaving it feeling rough. Next time I was in I mentioned it and he buffed the tooth surface. Now the whole thing feels rough and a bit sensitive. The rest of my teeth are smooth and shiny feeling, can it be fixed? Or is my tooth now completely damaged and irreparable? Will this lead to my tooth decaying and having to be removed? Many thanks in advance.

Hello, thank you for your question. It is very likely it can be polished further. Please go back and ask for further assistance. Kind regards, Mark.
