Had fillings in my 4 upper front teeth on Monday afternoon (June 18th) I was just flossing a few moments ago when I noticed that one of them has a piece of it that is cracked and looks about ready to fall off! It is the filling itself that as the crack - why has it done this? I haven't been eating anything that is hard and I haven't knocked it in any way. Will my Dentist replace it for me?
 
I would hope so!

Yes he should replace it for free

Maybe the mix of it wasn't right.

Well I'm NHS Exempt so the cost isn't an issue - it's more just feeling a bit down because I was really pleased with them and now this happens and it's made me feel really down about the who teeth issue all over again.
 
Ring your dentist and tell them as soon as you can, the sooner they can get this fixed the better.

Good luck :butterfly:
