The right solution depends on the condition of the tooth and restoration. After evaluating the area, we’ll be able to recommend the most appropriate treatment.
Re-cementing a Crown
- If your dental crown feels loose, it may be possible to fix it by cleaning and securely re-cementing it, provided the crown is still intact and fits.
Replacing a Crown
- If the crown is damaged, no longer fits properly, or if there is decay present, a new crown may be recommended.
Replacing a Filling
- Unlike a dental crown, which can often be re-cemented if it becomes loose, fillings typically need to be replaced once they break or fall out. In many cases, a new filling can be placed, but if the damage is more extensive, a crown may be recommended to better protect the tooth.
Additional Treatment if Needed
If decay or infection is present, further treatment such as a root canal may be recommended before restoring the tooth.
What to Do If You Lose a Crown or Filling
- Keep the crown if it has fallen out
- Avoid chewing on the affected side
- Keep the area clean
- Use temporary dental cement if needed (available at pharmacies)
