Slight pain after filling replacement.

    Back at the end of may I went to the dentist to get a checkup. She said I had a filling at the bottom back right that needs to be replaced. I was surprised at this as I had no issue's with the tooth before my visit. I told the dentist this and she said I will have problems if I don't get it done.

    I gave the go-ahead to replace the filling. Big mistake. Since having it done I'm getting a dull pain nothing bad just something that makes me aware of the tooth if that makes sense. I have no problem with eating on it or hot & cold.

    I use teepee micro brushes(0.40mm) to clean between the tooth and the one next to it. Most times its not bad when I clean with teepee but sometimes it's really sensitive as if I'm tipping the nerve.

    I'm always aware of the tooth but not in a painful way.

    I brush my teeth 3 times a day with colgate Sensitive Pro-Relief and use mouthwash.

    I'm considering getting this tooth and the one behind it out and getting false teeth in to get rid of it once and for all. I can't afford roots canal treatment so it's, take it out or leave it in, no in between.

    As I said it's not a constant or bad pain so I can't make up my mind what to do. Will this feeling fade after a couple of months or always be there.

    Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
