See a dentist.: Best advice anyone can give you. It has been three months since the filling fell out... why are you waiting?

Filling fell out: Probably from recurrent decay or fractured filling. Should have been replaced immediately. The inside of a tooth is not supposed to be exposed to the microorganisms that live in your mouth. Please see Dentist immediately. Delay is not in your best interest.
