01In brief
Crown fell off: what should I do?
Get it seen quickly
A crown that falls off is usually not a serious emergency, but the tooth underneath is fragile: it can become sensitive, shift or break. Keep the crown in a small container, avoid chewing on that side and call the Go Dentiste clinic in Valleyfield at 514-533-3368. If the crown and the tooth are intact, the crown can often be re-cemented, sometimes the same day, subject to availability.

What to avoid
- Gluing the crown back with super glue or household glue

- Scraping or cleaning the tooth with a sharp object

04At the Valleyfield clinic
Re-cementing or remaking the crown
The dentist examines the tooth and the inside of the crown and checks for a cavity or a fracture. If everything is healthy, the dentist cleans the crown and re-cements it.
If the tooth or the crown is damaged, a new crown may be needed; a temporary crown then protects the tooth in the meantime. The options and costs are explained before starting.

06FAQ
Frequently asked questions: crown fell off in Valleyfield
My temporary crown fell off: is it serious?
It protects the prepared tooth until the permanent crown is ready. Without it, the tooth can shift or become sensitive: call the clinic to have it re-cemented quickly.
Can I put the crown back myself?
With a temporary dental cement from the pharmacy, as a short-term fix for a few days, if it fits well. Never use super glue or household glue: it can damage the tooth and prevent the crown from being re-cemented.
Why does a crown come loose?
The cement can wear down over time, a cavity can form under the crown, or the tooth can fracture. The dentist looks for the cause before putting the crown back in place.
What if the crown is on an implant?
A crown on an implant that moves or comes off also needs to be seen quickly: the screw or the abutment may have loosened. Bring the crown with you.
