This is happening becoz the filling would be higher than the normal height of the tooth and needs to be reduced by your dentist to relieve the discomfort
Next Steps
Visit your dentist n tell him to check for high points in the filling

You need to get a x ray done to check the decay status and sometimes if little bit of decay is left not removed completely this may happen or if the fillings are higher than normal teeth also this happens
Next Steps
Visit dentist soon
