Question

How do you know if a filling has come out?

Are there any signs? tastewise?

thanks

I was chewing on a small mint and all of a sudden i tasted something bad, so i dunno

Answer 1

HELLO,
THIS IS MOST LIKELY A TONSIL STONE.
FILLINGS ARE NOT THINGS THAT TASTE BAD.

Answer 2

You should be able to feel the hole with your tongue. It will have rough edges, so it will be noticeable.

I've never TASTED anything when I lost them, felt grittiness, maybe. Perhaps there was something yucky in the mint.

Answer 3

I would go to your dentist for them to look at it - what you don't want is to wait a long time until something hurts...then you may have a bigger cavity where the filling came out...

Answer 4

a weird metallic taste, a chunk of filling or
tooth in your mouth, and/or a "sharp spot" or "hole"
when you run your tongue over your teeth.

Answer 5

well do you see a hole in the tooth!
