What is the pun in this sentence- an epitaph which reads here lies a dentist who is filling his last cavity?
The pun in the epitaph lies in the double meaning of the word "filling." In dentistry, "filling" refers to the process of repairing a cavity in a tooth, while in the context of the epitaph, it humorously implies that the dentist has passed away and is now metaphorically "filling" his final resting place. This clever wordplay blends the dentist's profession with the concept of death in a lighthearted manner.
How do you get rid of a throbbing tooth pain that comes and goes?

Can you stop yourself from getting a filling once the dentist has told you that you have a little hole starting and i might need a filling?
As a patient you always have the right to refuse treatment, but it really is better to get a filling while the hole is still small. It's much cheaper and less prone to have complications later.
What happens if you need a tooth filled?
Dental fillings are quite simple. First, the dentist will ask you weather you want to have an injection to numb your mouth so you do not feel any pain. If you do decide to have an injection, the dentist may put some numbing gel on the place of injection or they may not, it really does not make any difference. The dentist will then leave you for a minute while the anesthetic takes affect. Next, the dentist will use a drill to drill out the decayed and weakened parts of the tooth. This may feel a bit funny but should not hurt. Then the dentist will wash and dry the now clean cavity. Finally, the dentist will place a special underlining, such as resin, to protect the nerves and blood vessels. Then the filling will be placed into the tooth. Depending on the type of filling, it will dry in a few seconds or the dentist may use a blue light to set it. Good luck on your filling. I speak on experience, I had a filling done a few hours ago.
What happens when you get your teeth filled?
The dentist will usually give you a local anesthetic to numb the area. The decay (caries) is removed with a drill until no decay is present. Depending on the depth of the decay, the dentist will drill into the area of the tooth until no more decay is present. Then a sedative is placed in the cavity space, then a permanent restoration is placed, usually a white colored filling (Resin) or a silver filling (amalgam). The dentist will contour the filling to your bite and that's it. Pretty easy and painless. You may be told not to eat on that side of your mouth for a few hours to allow the filling to set and also you will be numb. You need to be careful about not biting your lip, cheek or tongue while you are numb. The anesthesia wears off in a few hours.

Can you remove amalgam fillings?
By yourself - unlikely. By going to the dentist and having it drilled out and replaced with something else - sure. But remember that: -it'll cost as much, and be as uncomfortable as having the filling put in the first time - the heat and flakes released in the process will actually increase the amount of mercury that's in your blood stream for quite a while after the procedure, if it's mercury you're worried about.
What is difference between fill out and fill up?
"Fill out" typically refers to completing a form or document by providing the necessary information, such as filling out an application.

While both phrases involve the action of filling, their contexts and applications differ significantly.

Swolen gum and sharp pain in right temple related?
If you have swollen gums and pain anywhere near the swelling, it is a good idea to go see your dentist immediately. This could be your first sign of either gum infection or abscessed tooth, or bad root. Take no chances and go see a dentist to be on the safe side. Hopefully your dentist will tell you something simple, like you probably just bit down on something hard and your gum will be sensitive for a while. but it's better to find out it is something simple rather than waiting until you get more signs.
