That explains a lot. I had one of these improperly done on a molar about 10 years ago. After the anesthetic wore off from the first visit, the pain slowly grew over the next few days until it was of brilliant, blinding, bang-head-against-hard-object make it STOP!! intensity.

After they took off the temp filling, the smell was nauseating. Apparently it wasn't cleaned very well.

Never went to that guy again.

The foul odor may well have been from an infection.
That is absolutely not normal.
