Hello XXXXX ,

Thanks for consulting Healthcare magic .
This is Dr. Priyanka Tiwari answerig your query .

I have read your query and understand your concern . As far as swallowing of tooth or filling is concerned 2 days ago as such there seem no risk now . For this I will suggest you to eat bananas and drink plenty of water so that it get excreted through stools. As you have white stool this might be due to excretion of tooth filling .
Still if you feel problem in throat then consult ENT surgeon for clinical examination of throat or consult physician and please go for investigation like ultrasound.

Hope I have answered your query .
If you have further query I will be happy to help.
