You could have secondary caries, decay around the filling which is sometimes not visible to the patient. Also, the filling may not have been successful or old and may need done again. If it has been a while from the last time you had the tooth filled then maybe it would be a good idea to have it completed again because you don't want the decay to go down to the root and lead to a root treatment being necessary (not fun wotsoever)
