Front teeth hurt after filling is done to side teeth

Q. Hi, I had a couple of side teeth worked on, and had a filling done. My front teeth were never sensitive before this procedure..Now it hurts really bad when something cold hits the 2 front teeth. She said to try Sesodyne, but it did absolutely nothing! What can I do? Thanks,

A. Well it sounds like those teeth need to be assessed it is very difficult to give you a diagnosis without seeing you.  When you bite your teeth together does it feel different to before or uncomfortable?? The new filling may be a little low which has altered your bite and put more pressure on your front teeth.  The other causes could be your gums…I am afraid I am only able to give you by best guesses without seeing you.
