I had a check up and mentioned have a sensitive tooth (lower molar). There are two teeth and one of them is causing pain when something cold touches it although I'm not too sure which tooth it is. I suggested to my dentist that it could be the molar with the existing white filling and he suggested that he replaces it completely at a cost of over £150 (I am a private patient). I don't know why I didn't ask while I was at the surgery (probably because I felt rushed with them wearing the PPE and the current situation) but I assumed that the dentist would spray cold air/water on the tooth to correctly identify the problem tooth.
My question is this...Does this not happen anymore as I came away a bit surprised that he just wants to replace the white filling on my say so?
Thanks
