My filling fell out a month ago. I don't have a dentist or dental insurance. I hope a dentist will accept cash to fix it.

I was using oral B expanding floss & my filling in my front tooth came out. What do I do?

The tooth whole is irritating each and every time you eat and takes the fun away from eating, however when it's filled with temporary filling it's easier to bite with while not having to think about cleaning the filling hole after eating. The best and ultimate cure is to visit your trusted Dentist as soon as possible by making an appointment right now. Even with temporary filling, it's best not to delay your dentist appointment from my past experience. Your dentist may likely get this done in half hour of your time to cost just under two hundred dollars if you take cash. Insurance unfortunately doesn't cover Filling so best to consult your front desk at your Dentist. If you're reading this make your dental appointment right now, you'll thank yourself following your dental appointment.

Mine fell out when I was going to bed. I was flossing my teeth and then it just popped out. I thought it came off of my tooth like part of my tooth but then I fell a hole in my tooth and I’m like that’s on the side, so I thought that it was a fill because my dad took a picture and there was like the literally, almost microscopic tiny little things and I’m pretty sure it looked like kinda like if a cavity was there so yeah it’s probably a feeling and I don’t really need to do that. I’m not feeling any pain and I’m fine.
