I've never come across this problem before but I would suggest it would be wise to invest in a paint scraper. They're inexpensive and are incredibly useful. I'm sure you can use one to remove the plastic. If you're not successful at first, try heating the plastic and trying again.

It depends on the type of plastic, how hot the oven was when the plastic melted, whether and how the oven was cleaned, and other factors. Some types of plastic do give off toxic fumes when overheated, and those fumes can possibly leave toxic residues in an oven.

How do you rid the inside of your oven of smoke and smell from a melted spoon?

Plastic utensils should NEVER be used inside an oven. If you've ever melted anything on the heating elements, you'll understand. The smell comes from the petroleum products used in the manufacturing of plastics. Unfortunately, the cleaning products you would normally use to remove them are highly flammable and should never be used in your oven. Your best alternative is to resign yourself to dealing with the smell of running your oven through a cleaning cycle. Most ovens have them. You lock up the oven, set the cleaning cycle and let it heat up and smoke for a little while. I recommend doing this during a part of the day when you can have the windows of your home wide open. Once the cycle is complete there will be a cooling off period, in which you will not be able to open the oven. However, once you do open the oven you should find a fine layer of ash coating the inside. Simply wipe that clean with a damp cloth or sponge and you're good to go.
