Lost filling

[Dad1978]

I was at the dentist today for my 6 week Invisalign checkup. He noted that I had a small filling that had fallen out. I hadn’t noticed it at all. He said they will just take care of it at my next cleaning which is in 5 weeks.

is that too long to wait to fix this?

Good day

If the filling is indeed small, try and keep the area as clean as possible, and it should be fine. If you are really worried, you can always try and schedule an earlier appointment.
