Collocation for getting a dental filling


I wanted to tell a friend about a time when I had to get a dental filling. My
instinct was to use 受ける or もらう, but Google tells me this is incorrect. Would I
simply say:

> 去年、歯が詰め物した。

or perhaps

> 去年、歯が詰め物してしまった。

Furthermore, what actually happened was I had to have a filling replaced. Is
this correct?

> 詰め物した歯を交換してくれた。

(Edit: I just realized this means I'm replacing the tooth, not the filling.
歯の詰め物, not 詰め物がした歯, right?)

And is 歯 required? In English, "I got a filling" clearly implies "dental
filling," but I get the sense that this is not the case in Japanese. Thanks!




I'd say:

> 歯に詰め物をした  
>  歯を詰めた

You can use もらう as a subsidiary verb, as in:

> 歯に詰め物をしてもらった  
>  歯に詰め物を入れてもらった  
>  歯を詰めてもらった

To say "I had a tooth filled with [some material]", you can say
「歯に［樹脂・白いもの・レジン etc.］を詰めた・詰めてもらった」.

To say "I had a filling replaced", you could say:

> 歯の詰め物を交換した (or 交換してもらった)

... but I think it's more common to say:

> 歯を詰め直した  
>  歯を詰め直してもらった

Yes... you'd usually need to say 「歯」...  though I think you could leave it out
when you just said 「歯医者（さん）で...」, like 「昨日、歯医者さんで詰め物をしてもらった。」... But
「昨日、歯医者さんで詰めた。」 still sounds a bit strange...
