It could be that the deep filling, actually went into the nerve or affected the nerve of the tooth. If this is the case, then a root canal might be indicated. I would go back to the dentist that did the filling, and take an x-ray, to determine if the filling is touching the nerve or not.

It is crucial that you consult with your dentist as soon as possible for a thorough examination. They may perform diagnostic imaging (like X-rays) to assess for any underlying issues such as infection or complications related to your recent dental work.
