If u have pain while eating only..then there can be two things
Either the filling done is little high...which has to be reduced by the dentist...then u will feel ok.
Or the filling was too deep that it involved the pulp of tooth and now would go for a root canal treatment followed by crown.
Next Steps
this pain on eating would increase if you don't get it checked on time.

If the filling is intact but your tooth is still hurting then it may require a root canal treatment as the cavity may have been too deep and affected the nerve inside the tooth.
Next Steps
Get an X-ray and consultation from a dentist
