Suggest Remedy To Get Proper Jaw Alignment After Fillings
I had 9 fillings done almost a month ago. I have been back twice for grinding since they were high. My bite is way off now and I cannot even eat on my right side. Dentist told me to use sensodyne and come back in a week or two if it isn't any better. It isn't any better and my jaws hurt because my bite is off and I cannot rest my teeth properly. What should i do?
Bite irregularity could be due to the presence of high points in the filled teeth. I would advice you to visit your dentist at the earliest and have the high points removed. If the bite is still not proper ,it may require a bite correction either by use of night guard or other appropriate procedure.
Hope this was useful. Thanks and regards.
