The mount-point doesn't disappear just because you removed a line from
/etc/fstab. Removing the line makes sure that the partition doesn't get
mounted the next time the system is rebooted.
If you want to unmount it without rebooting (which seems likely), use the
"umount" command.
Afterwards there is an empty directory (the so-called mount point) in your
/mnt tree. You can remove it safely, if you don't plan to use it anymore.

No, you don't have to reinstall. Reinstalling hardly ever fixes anything.
