Not enough detail in your request. And the radiograph is far too pixellated to assess the RCTs.
What do you mean by " pain"? Consider this sheet that I give to my assistant dentists.
  1. Eating pressure?
  2. Hot or cold?
  3. Percussive pain?
  4. Taking analgesics; if so, to what effect?
  5. Pain to ear, or to temple?
Just going from what I can see, there's been a deep composite on the premolar. That'd be my first guess.

I agree with Dr. MattKW with the premolar as well as its margin gaps. Also from the image quality, it appears that restorations of the 2 posterior molars have open margin gaps or large pooling of radiolucent cement/bonding agent.
