Yeah, I was always told not to eat anthing I'd even remotely have to chew for a while...not necessarily because of new fillings but because I'd chomp my cheeks all to bloody heck.
It takes too long to kick in effectively and too long to go away. :-p
If it's still rather numb TOMORROW, then there's a problem.
How was your numbing agent given? I had to get two molars removed (the buggers cracked in my jaw because of the new molars beneath them), and I got the OMG needle-as-long-as-my-pinkie-and-as-big-around-as-a-coffee-stirrer (you think those things are little until you see a needle that big. HORROR.) jammed into the back part of my jaw. I almost kicked the crap out of the dentist, but instead, I just made funny noises and whined.
...He said I was awesome because I didn't do anything to him.
The numbness wore off too early for me when I got almost all of my adult teeth capped (I swung around on this pair on metal parallel bars in the playground at primary school, no pain, lots of black dots flashing in front of my eyes). I was lying on the table and the dentist was using sandpaper to create a gap between the teeth, and there was this terrible amount of pain on my gum when the anaesthetic qore off and I could feel it.
