Yes, you can drink water after filling placement
Sure you can! But first, be aware that more than likely, you have numbness in your lip, so water may leak out of your mouth until the feeling comes back. 2) for a week or two after a filling, it may be hot and/or cold sensitive.

Yes. You may drink water after a filling. Depending on the nature of the filling, you may want to avoid extremely cold and hot water. For example, if the filling was very deep, extreme water temperatures may cause some discomfort until the tooth, if agitated during the filling process, can calm down. In most cases, drinking water after a filling is okay.

Yes, you can drink water after a filling. You should refrain from eating hard items for 24 hours if you had a silver filling put in. You can eat and drink immediately after a resin filling, however you should be careful until after your numbness goes away so that you do not accidently chew on your cheek or tongue. No hot liquid either to avoid burning yourself while numb.
Yes! You can drink water after a filling. Water is best!
Yes. The filling is totally cured after leaving the office.
