I had a deep composite filling done 3 weeks ago. It was actually filled 2 or 3 years ago before by another dentist. But I'm seeing a new dentist and he wanted to fill it again because he said it was starting to chip. It's pretty deep, but still a little tooth left before the nerve.

Also there was accually a new cavity on the other side of the same tooth. I'm not sure if they joined the fillings together or not. The first time it was filled years ago, I remember it being sore for a week or less. But not this bad. Right now its been 3 weeks and all the teeth around it feel sore or swollen. Its not reall bad, but if I eat on it they get worse, Then the pain goes back down to where it is all the time, after 2 to 4 hours. It has not gotten any worse overall since it was filled. It's not sensative to cold or hot.

Do i just need to give it more time? I worry about it though, and it bothers me. It's the tooth next to my wisdom tooth on the top side so there is a lot of nerves up there. (I'm 27 years old)
