Care after tooth treatment
Numbness, sensitivity and the first meal: what is normal after a filling or root canal.

Anaesthesia wears off within two to four hours. Until then, avoid eating so you do not bite your cheek or tongue. Mild sensitivity to cold or pressure can last a few days after a deep filling or root canal treatment.
Call us if
- The bite feels high once numbness has passed.
- Pain increases instead of fading after two or three days.
- Swelling or a bad taste develops.
