The determination of whether a filling is too high can usually be made through clinical symptoms, or by going to the dental department for a timely examination. These methods can be used to determine whether the filling is too high.

1. Clinical symptoms: If the filling is too high, it may cause discomfort to the patient when biting, accompanied by pain symptoms, and will also affect the normal bite function and eating. You may find that your teeth are not strong enough when you bite something, or you may feel pain in the area of ​​your teeth when you chew.

2. Dental examination: After the teeth are filled, you need to go to the hospital for X-rays or dental radiographs in time to determine the severity of the protruding teeth and provide targeted treatment based on the results of the examination.

Filling is a common way to repair teeth. It mainly involves cleaning out the decayed tissue inside the tooth and then filling it with resin material to protect the tooth. If it is found that the tooth is filled too high during the filling process, it is generally necessary to remove the excess part in time to avoid affecting the patient's chewing function and causing local pain symptoms. After a tooth is filled, you should not brush your teeth or rinse your mouth for a short period of time to avoid the filling material falling off. Try to eat easily digestible food for a short period of time.
