My Teeth Feel a Little Strange After Being Filed Down, Almost "Cruddy." Is This Normal?

Asked By:LynnC23 in West Bend, WI

I recently had my two front teeth filed down, and they feel a little strange. Almost like when you drink Sunny Delight or an acidic fruit drink and your teeth get cruddy. I went back to the dentist this morning to have them polished so they weren't so rough, and they're smoother now but still feel almost a little furry, I guess you could say. Is this normal? And will it improve with time if I use pro enamel toothpaste and mouthwash?
