Hi I have gone through your Query, first stop worrying about all this, if any loose filling feeling, it is already distorted go for proper filling in that portion.

GIC filling (though of many quality/ types) are permanent restorations. It is supposed to serve you for good. And please understand that filling coming off from an area depends upon many other factors also. So don't worry and use your filled teeth normally . But go for regular check ups every six months.
