Hi,
The pain from sweets is a classic sign of a leaky filling. The sugar will percolate into the tooth between the filling and the tooth and cause sensitivity. Replacing the fillings should solve that.
Till then pls cut down on your sugar intake. Sugars are highly acidic and frequent intake are a precursor to decay and/or fast progression of decay already present in tooth/teeth.
