Temporary crowns are designed to protect your tooth until your permanent crown is ready. Occasionally, they come loose.
If your temporary crown falls off, keep it in a safe place and avoid chewing on that tooth. If possible, call our office so we can determine whether you should be seen right away or if it can safely wait until the next business day.
Please don’t use super glue or household adhesives to put it back on.
The temporary crown is important because it protects your prepared tooth and helps keep it from shifting before your permanent crown is placed.
