Filling tooth pain
I did my filling one week ago. The tooth became black and it's hurting all the time. It's a molar on upper jaw left side and my bone under eye on that side also having pain.

Hi,
Get an X-ray for the discolored tooth. Looks like there is secondary decay on that tooth which might be involving the inner pulp of the tooth.
