I am 21, had one session of root canal and a temporary filling was applied and I couldn't go for other sessions cus of the location. Now the temporary filling is coming out and I can not eat from that side. All the dentists near me are closed. What can I do at home.

Don't eat from that side. Sometimes only the extra filling comes out. Just check or share a picture here. If the filling is intact, no need to worry. Visit your dentist once things get normal. If filling has come out, then avoid eating from that side, keep that area clean, rinse thoroughly after meals. Can't do much to fill the tooth at home. Take care.
