Hi,
Earlier(5yrs before) I went to dentist for filling permanent cement in my tooth(in tooth gap). But now it's broken. So I have x-ray of my teeth. And want to know is there any issue in it ... Or need to do any treatment?

If the filling is broken you need to get it refilled.
Get your other teeth checked as well when you visit your doctor.
