Tooth pain can be caused by a variety of factors that are not always as easy to identify as tooth decay. One of these sources of pain is related to the point of contact of the teeth, in particular following a filling ("sealing").
The teeth of the maxilla must fit perfectly with those of the lower jaw to allow chewing, grinding, etc. This relationship of the teeth to one another when the jaws are closed is called occlusion. If this contact is not perfectly adjusted, it is called bad occlusion or malocclusion. The pressure exerted is not distributed properly and pain can occur. An adjustment of the occlusion may then be necessary.
Following a filling (to seal a cavity caused by a cavity), it is possible that the repaired tooth causes a bad occlusion (contact between the teeth that is not properly adjusted).
After inserting the restoration material, the dentist asks the patient to bite on a small piece of blue paper. This small instrument has the function of visibly identifying the contact points of the teeth. Precision is required since the adjustment of the occlusion can be compared to the fineness of a hair.
The dentist grinds the restorative material slightly and asks the patient to snap his teeth together to see if he feels any discomfort. Being anesthetized makes it difficult for the patient to know if the new height of the tooth appears to be consistent. It is therefore possible that he later feels the need for an occlusion adjustment.
SYMPTOMS:
Back home after a filling, some symptoms could indicate malocclusion:
- the patient bites his tongue several times;
the patient has the impression of maintaining a greater pressure in the region of the restored tooth;
- a radiating pain begins to settle.
WHY MALOCCLUSION CAUSES PAIN?
During chewing efforts, the pressure on the ligaments surrounding a tooth can be several kilograms per square centimeter. Thus, a tooth that is suddenly subjected to unbalanced pressure will compensate for its "suspension" system, that is to say the ligamentous tissue in which the tooth rests (between the tooth and the bone).
This fabric is called desmodonte. It is composed of a multitude of nerve endings and, by being forced, it can quickly present a protective reaction, an inflammation of the pulp chamber, which will cause severe pain.

WHAT CAN THE DENTIST DO?
On a very short appointment, the dentist can relieve you almost instantaneously by polishing the exact points of contact of the occlusion. No anesthesia is necessary.
