Sensitive tooth
I had hole in a tooth for 4 years than i got it composite filling (that tooth with a hole was not paining Or was sensitive). But i have done filling 1 years ago till now my tooth is sensitive to more cold. There's no pain but when by mistake I bite some hard food with that tooth I can feel pain will come. Will I require RCT?
