If you had novocaine, you might want to wait until it wears off. Since it is not hot, it should be okay.

I don't agree with the answer below as you would dehydrate if you don't drink anything for 24 hours.

Drinking isn't a problem after a dental filling, unless you have had a fluoride treatment, where you would have to wait 30 minutes before putting anything in your mouth.

If you have had a silver filling done, it is recommended not to eat anything for an hour, and not to eat anything hard (cancy, nuts) for 24 hours.

If you have had a white filling done, you can eat right away because the fillings are hard instantly. Put in mind that you might be numb for a few hours after the treatment if you have had local anesthesia. And also, you teeth might be sensitive to cold for a few days. depends on the type of filling. Usually to be safe 24 Hrs. on either one should be okay.

Dentists make sure that the filling is cured before you leave their office. So, you could drink water as soon as your appointment is over.

Is the serface tension of the outside of the hull of a vessel equalized when a cavity within the hull of a vessel is filled with water?

This is not a good/valid question as the terms used in it are not compatible I.E. Surface tension has nothing to do with a cavity within the hull (filled or not with water)Perhaps the question was meant to be: Is the displacementof the hull increased when a cavity within the hull of a vessel is filled with water?To this, the answer is yes, as any weight added to the vessel, no matter where it is added (inside a cavity or not) will increase the displacement.The displacement of a vessel such as a ship is a measure of the amount of water that would normally be in the area that the ship now occupies. The weight of this displaced water would be equal to the total weight of the entire ship.
