You are chewing an apple and hear a weird sound, then something in your mouth feels wrong. One of your crowns has come loose. Chances are, the crown (which costs you hundreds of dollars) can be re-cemented.
What do you do when your dental crown comes off? It’s vital that you take the following steps:
Don’t Swallow It!
This may seem like a no-brainer, but we are mentioning it because it is vital. Carefully take it out of your mouth. If you accidentally swallow it, you will have some extra problems that aren’t pleasant.
Look Carefully
Inspect the crown and your tooth. If there is damage to either, Doctor Flax will need that information.
Call Flax Dental
We will schedule you an appointment promptly and counsel you on whether you should use temporary cement to re-attach the crown until you can get into Flax Dental and have it permanently re-cemented.
Clean Gently
Use a toothbrush to carefully clean the crown and the unprotected partial tooth.
Handle With Care
While waiting for the crown to be re-cemented, skip substances that are chewy, sticky, or crunchy.
