I recently had a filling tooth come out and there's this soft thing where the tooth used to be what does that mean do I have to put the filling back in my mouth please answer I am really worried?
I wouldn't worry too much if I were you. I work as a dental assistant and see this happen all of the time. The soft spot you see is most likely the gum underneath where the tooth used to be. If the entire tooth is missing you will need to get a crown. There is no way to replace a filling without enough tooth there to act as a base for the filling. The crown will probably have to be supported by a bridge which is a metal piece holding the crown in place. If that does not sound like something you want to do then another option is to get a tooth implant. Those are more expensive than a crown and is not typically covered by insurance because it is considered cosmetic. I hope this helps you and try not to worry. Unless there is discoloration in the gums or some type of irritation then you will be fine. I would still get it checked out by your dentist tho because you will need to do something eventually.
