Visit your dentist to remove the high points by eliminating the excess filling material and to ensure your teeth are in proper contact. Maintain good oral hygiene.

Please visit the dentist.

I understand your concern and would like to suggest to visit dentist for the same as, the filling  has high point that needs to be corrected by the dentist.

As I have understood from your question that you had pain and could not eat from that tooth and got filling done with gic few hrs back and now filling touching with opposite teeth. Bite issue. You need to get it checked. This is called high point left after filling. Your dentist will adjust the filling and make your bite like before. Don't ignore this. You might get jaw pain or headache due to this. Hope you got the answer you were looking for. Regards Dr Nikhil

Visit your dentist to get the excess filing removed, and to get your bite settled. It will be better then.

Reduce the High point of gic restoration in follow up visit.

What you are feeling is called High Point after filling - this is very common after distal side filling of 2nd molar. From your photo, the filling is done on the distal (back side) surface of 2nd molar. Distal side is very close to gum and wisdom tooth area, so if filling is slightly overfilled / protruding from distal side, it will touch the opposite tooth first when you bite. Why this happens: 1. After filling, local anesthesia is still there, you cannot judge bite correctly at clinic. 2. GIC is technique sensitive - if slightly overfilled on distal side, it feels protruding. 3. Your bite was already disturbed due to pain before filling, so now with new filling material, it feels uneasy. This is NOT an emergency but needs correction - Do not ignore. Next Steps: 1. Please visit your dentist within 24 hours for bite adjustment / polishing. It is a 2-minute procedure - dentist will use articulating paper to check high point and trim it. 2. If GIC is protruding from distal side and irritating gum / food getting stuck, dentist will finish and polish that edge. 3. Till then, avoid chewing hard food from that side. Helpful Tips: 1. Do NOT try to grind the filling yourself with any tool. 2. Avoid chewing from that side for today. 3. After correction, if pain was only due to high point, your bite will feel normal in 24-48 hours. 4. GIC is a temporary / intermediate filling material - please ask your dentist whether you need a permanent composite filling / crown later for long-term strength, especially for 2nd molar which bears heavy chewing load. If after bite correction you still have sharp pain on biting at a specific angle which goes away instantly, please tell your dentist - that needs to be evaluated for cracked tooth / deep cavity. Hope this helps. Get the high point corrected soon, you will feel better.
