Hello, thank you for consulting with healthcaremagic.
If you are feeling sensitivity even after restoration then it can be possible that the filling which has be done is slightly above the occlusal level, and now while closing the mouth, it is creating pressure and problem.
Better you visit the dentist and get it treated.
Hope it will help you.
