First tooth filling and can’t chew at back.

I had two fillings yesterday one at the front and one at the side next to it. It’s changed my bite and now my back teeth no longer touch and my front teeth meet before I can chew. So unless I chew large chunks ridiculously slowly and considered, my front teeth bash off each other. Im concerned that I could damage my front teeth trying to eat. I’ve never had a filling before so I’m not sure if this is normal and is something I just need to get used to or should I go back? It took me 5 weeks waiting for the appointment to get the fillings so im
concerned I’ll end up waiting as long to go back to be able to eat and the damage will
be done by then.

I’d appreciate any advice.

Go back and have it smoothed down, really simple to sort and normal don't worry

i was worried they’d maybe remove it and start again.

No, it's just the filling is too high so a simple smooth down will work.
