Answers:
If it's a wisdom tooth that was pulled, you don't need to have it replaced. Wisdom teeth are vestigial-- They have no function and are pretty much useless.
If it's one of the molars further forward, then you might need a replacement yes. Discuss the options with your dentist or ask another for a second or third opinion.
