Is it normal to accumulate a sticky substance around a new resin filled teeth?

Q. Hi, I recently chipped one of my front teeth, and yesterday had it filled in (I think with a resin). Since then, I’ve noticed a sticky gunge collecting around it-similar to saliva, but thicker and sticky. Is this normal due to how recently the filling was put in, or do I need to go back to my dentist.

A. if it doesn’t resolve in few weeks I would get it checked out. Rob
