Hii.. If you have gum boil under the teeth you got filled, then there is possibility of spreading the cavity & infection into the roots. No need to worry. You should get the checkup done. Dentist will take the X ray & proceed with the treatment. I require pic of your oral cavity to proper diagnose & plan a treatment for you.
