    Posted by adi on April 7, 2025 at 6:00 am

    A 32-year-old female patient presents with ongoing sensitivity to cold and sweets after a composite restoration on tooth #26. The sensitivity has persisted for over two weeks. Occlusion has been checked and adjusted, but symptoms remain. Radiographs show no signs of secondary caries or pulpal inflammation.

    ❓What do you think could be the cause?

    ✔️ Could it be due to improper bonding or pulpal irritation?

    ✔️ Your suggestions: Replace the filling, apply fluoride varnish, or consider pulp therapy?
