After filling (tooth-colored filling) two teeth, they have become somewhat
sensitive to pressure.

To make them heal faster, should I avoid using them, or should I try to use
them as much as I can tolerate?

    You should return to the dentist to get them checked out.  It could be
that a minor bite correction is needed.  Until then, go easy on them.

I wasn't sure which Dr. B would show up - the cycling one (suffering
is good, inflicting pain is better) or the medico (ease their pain).
Ever get them confused...?  ;)

    I assume you've seen "Marathon Man"?
Actually, while I have suffered on the bike that's rarely what I was
looking for; and sadly I was seldom in shape to make others suffer on
the bike.

Or...

it could be that they weren't correctly bonded in place (but I
hope that's not the case and a bite adjustment takes care of it).
