Most of the fillings that I had done as a kid have fallen out within the last ten to fifteen years, since they were never meant to last more than 20 years anyway. Or something like that. It's a bitch, but one by one I am having to replace them with crowns. Good thing you replaced yours before they fell out, helped by (say) a corn nut or something else crunchy -- when they do, they often take a piece of the tooth with them, which forces the need for repair work. I'm still waiting for the funds to get some of my needed dental repair.
