I had a silver filling, and a bit of enamel chipped directly over it, exposing some of the silver parts (so silver not exposed in two areas), and this morning all of the sudden it started to be very sensitive to liquids. Does this mean I need a root canal?
could it be just a galvanic effect from the two exposed areas of the same filling?
