“What should I do if my filling is loose?”
I had a tooth filling last week, and now it seems that my filling is loose. What should I do if my filling is loose?

A visit to the dentist to repair the feeling is needed.
Go to the dentist right away and have it corrected! Waiting will introduce decay and bigger, more costly problems!

If you feel your filling is loose, go back to your dentist. If you had a tooth-colored filling, these materials are great, but they are technique sensitive. Or you may have bitten down hard on
something while you were still numb. Get an appointment with your dentist and have the filling replaced.

The only option is to go to your dentist and get it fixed. Avoiding this will lead to bigger problems down the road.
I would suggest returning to the dentist to have it checked.
Get to a dentist asap
I would return to the treating doctor and discuss this. This could be due to a loss of bond in which case the filling may need to be retreated. The filling should not be loose.
Return to the dentist who placed the tooth for an evaluation and remedy.
