Galvanic Shock
Posted: 09-26-06 12:46pm

I just had a filling done yesterday and when I got home I was in unbearable pain. Every 15 to 30 minutes I was getting what felt like a shock in my teeth. Imagine when you bite a piece of tin foil but only magnify it 100 times. I was doubled over every time it happened. I call my dentist and he told me it was galvanic shock and it would go away in 24 hours.

Well I feel better today; it's still happening but it's not bad. My question is has anyone else ever gone through this? I would like to hear how bad the pain was for you. My wife was supportive but I was getting the feeling that she thought I was overreacting about the pain. For me, on a scale from 1 to 10 it was a 20. Maybe i'm just a big baby?

Looking forward to hearing anybody's stories.

Semper fi,

bob
