A member asked:
I was wondering is it normal for silver amalgam filling moves a little on tooth?
4 doctors weighed in across 3 answers
No: Fillings should not move. It's probably broken and\or there's some decay under or around it. See a dentist to find out.

No: Needs replacement hopefully with an acrylic or porcelain filling.

See your dentist: Constant assault from eating and drinking, or stress from clenching or grinding, eventually may cause a dental filling to fail. See your dentist for examination, x-rays and treatment.
