Hello, I had a filling 3 weeks ago today and I keep noticing an occasional pain like a twinge in the tooth I had the filling in. Is this normal? It was a front tooth

Any more information? Anything sets it off? Hot/Cold/Biting? How long does the twinge last?

Not really anything that sets it off, it only lasts a matter of seconds honestly so nothing too bad. The filling is still quite rough though if that'd make a difference

Give it a couple of weeks and if it's still twinging then give the dentist a call.
