Question about onlay

[Zephyr025]

Hello- today I just had an onlay done along with a filling redone infront of the onlayed tooth. These areas are sensitive when I bite down. My bite also feels a little bit off, but then again at other times it doesn't. Is this just an effect from this type of work? How long should I give my teeth to determine if my bite is not right? My jaw joint is hurting from the injections, and I hear clicking when I open it and its sore. The inside of my cheek is bruised and my throat is sore. Is this a norm? or? How does the dentist readjust your bite? Does it hurt? Thanks!

Btw- These are tooth colored filling/onlay. Permanant.

I'd hold off two or three days, unless it's really annoying you. Sometimes the bite sort of "settles in".

The bite is adjusted by smoothing off some of the inlay or filling, it doesn't hurt at all.
