Bad taste in mouth after filling

gonedrinking · 2011-11-08 13:35:37

About 2 weeks after getting a filling I have developed a bad taste in the back of my mouth, like a metallic taste. Could it be due to the filling or would I have got the bad taste straight after the filling, rather than 2 weeks later?

If its meeting another metallic filling you can get a galvanic circuit with saliva that give a taste and sensation. It usually goes away after a while. Bad taste can also be pus or infection so you should have all your teeth checked out and the wisdom teeth also.
