The ruling on ghusl when a molar has a filling

Question

A person has a hollow molar; the doctor tells him to have it filled with filling material (masala), beneath which, obviously, water will not be able to reach during ghusl, while rinsing the mouth is fard. And the hollow in the molar keeps growing. What should be done then?

Answer

If the filling is necessary and water then cannot reach beneath it, even so rinsing the mouth is sufficient.
