Why does the left side of my mouth feel like I'm biting down on the tooth after a bonding filling procedure?

Question

I had it done a week and a half ago and i thought last friday that i had lost it while eatting but then i went back to the dentist to have it checked out and my dentist said it was fine and everything was good and she even filed a pointy part down . So WHY does my left side feel like im biting on the tooth? when will that get better so i can eat normal again without feeling weird biting down feeling everytime on the left side?

in my opinion, you should not be waiting for the bite to become normalized on its own but rather you should return to your dentist for another bite adjustment of the recent composite filling.

You need to see your dentist again and get it adjusted till you feel comfortable with your bite. You need to repeat this process on that visit.  So, that you can go home and be comfortable. Don't be shy to tell the Dentist that its still high.
