I know a lot of people do it, but I\u2019m kind of embarrassed to admit it to my dentist.\u00a0I\u2019m afraid if I don\u2019t tell him the filler will move if I try and have my tooth fixed. So, I just keep waiting hoping I can make it at least two weeks (which is what my post op instructions stated). The longer I wait, the more it hurts and the the more of an emergency situation this becomes. Help! &#8212; Sara<\/p>\n<p>Sara,<br \/>\nYou definitely don\u2019t want to apply pressure to any areas where filler has been injected for at least a couple of weeks. But, if your tooth is continuing to get worse, you should be\u00a0seen and you definitely don\u2019t need to feel embarrassed to tell your dentist about the injections.<\/p>\n<p>Call your dentist and get in as soon as possible so he can x-ray and examine the tooth. Once he knows you have the\u00a0fillers, he\u2019ll be extra careful about applying pressure and you\u2019ll probably feel most uncomfortable trying to open your mouth \u2013 simply because the fillers cause tenderness and swelling. If it was just a regular check-up, you could easily put it off\u00a0a few weeks, but this toothache could quickly become very serious and visiting the emergency dentist will not affect your fillers.<\/p>\n<p>This post is sponsored by <a href=\"https:\/\/delaunedental.com\/\">New Orleans cosmetic dentist<\/a> Dr. Duane Delaune.
