Sounds like part of the filling may have fallen out, or maybe a new cavity there on the same tooth. Id go to the dentist if it continues. The filling may need to be redone.

You probably still have some decay under the filling or you have a nerve exposed or pressure on it. You may need a root canal. I would go see a dentist. If you start picking up radio stations, let me know....

Most fillings only last 10 years on average. Probably time to have it removed and re-filled (I just went through that with a couple of my fillings).

The filling needs to be replaced.10 years is a long time for a filling to last, well actually some do last longer.... But yours probably need to be redone...Good luck

Sometimes fillings get loose and have to replaced. I would see a dentist to be sure.

See a dentist!!! DO NOT rely on advice from the people on this site who know little or nothing about dentistry and are not licensed to give such advice. ALWAYS get professional medical information from your doctor or dentist They know you and your medical history. How in the world do you expect someone on this site to know why YOUR tooth aches!!
Chow!!

It may have decayed further. Go to your dentist because you may need a root canal.

I guarantee you, you need a root canal. See your dentist.
Now, you say it is "loose", well that is another story. Might have to have it pulled...........sorry.
