    Need advice. How do I raise the level of just one tile? See picture.

    I didn't tile this old bathroom but I'm cleaning it up, one tile is missing and needs to be almost half an inch forward to match the tiles around it. Can I use extra adhesive? Or extra cement? Or something else like mortar? I really need to get this fixed. Any tips would be appreciated. ed.
