# Filling Aftercare
> Numbness, mild sensitivity and bite changes are common. A simple aftercare guide. Includes simple steps and when to ask a dentist.

## Guides
- [Numbness and Eating](https://after-a-dental-filling.sogapary.workers.dev/numbness-eating-after-filling/): Numbness eating after filling is mainly a safety issue: you cannot feel your cheek, lip or tongue, so it is easy to bite them without noticing.
- [A High Bite: What to Know](https://after-a-dental-filling.sogapary.workers.dev/bite-feels-high/): If your bite feels high after a filling, the new surface may be sitting slightly above your natural tooth contact.
- [Sensitivity After a Filling: What to Expect](https://after-a-dental-filling.sogapary.workers.dev/sensitivity-after-filling/): Some sensitivity after filling is often described as a common early experience, usually showing up as a brief twinge with cold, heat, sweets or biting pressure.
- [Care Routine: The Basics](https://after-a-dental-filling.sogapary.workers.dev/filling-care-routine/): A filling care routine is mostly your normal routine, done with a bit more care around the treated tooth for the first few days.
- [When to Call Your Dentist After a Filling](https://after-a-dental-filling.sogapary.workers.dev/when-to-call-dentist-filling/): When to call dentist filling questions come down to one test: is the symptom getting worse, or is it not settling down? Call your dental office for pain that.
