Patients should expect some sort of sensitivity after a filling is installed, as it is a surgical procedure. There is sensitivity in the tooth because every tooth contains a nerve, and depending on the size and type of the filling used, patients should expect some sort of post-operative sensitivity. This sensitiveness is usually short-lived and does not develop into a chronic issue.
