Dental\ncrowns<\/a> are provided to restore damaged teeth without having to extract\nthem. They are customized to each patient\u2019s personal needs and last for many\nyears, giving patients the ability to smile with confidence. If your crown\nbecomes dislodged in any way, do not panic! Continue reading to learn which steps\nyou should take until you are able to see your emergency dentist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Call Your Dentist<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As soon as your crown falls out, it\u2019s important to act\nquickly. If the crown fell out of your mouth, do your best to look for it. If\nit\u2019s still in your mouth, take it out. You should rinse the area where the\ncrown was and clean it carefully with a soft-bristled toothbrush. You must be\nextremely careful because it could be tender and is more prone to damage. The\nmost important thing to do is to call your dentist. If you are in pain, you\nshould make an appointment as soon as possible. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Examine the Area and Clean Your Crown<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Check the inside of your crown and remove any debris or old\ncement. Ensure that your natural tooth hasn\u2019t been fractured and lodged within\nthe crown. Carefully run your tongue over the tooth to check and see if it is\nsmooth or sharp. If you are at risk of cutting or injuring yourself, you will\nwant to see your dentist even sooner. You should share all of this information when\nyou call your dental office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If the crown is hollow, you may be able to place it back on\nyour tooth. Follow the instructions of your dentist to determine whether or not\nyou should use a special type of temporary glue to hold the crown in place\nuntil it can be fixed. This can be found at most pharmacies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Use Caution<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Before you are able to go to the dentist, make sure that you\nare avoiding chewy and sticky foods that could cause more issues. Chew on the\nside of your mouth that isn\u2019t missing a crown. If you are able to, stick to a\nsoft food diet until you can get it repaired or replaced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Go to Your Dentist<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When it is time for you to go in, your dentist will\ndetermine if your crown can be replaced or if you will be needing a brand new\none. Either way, he will clean the area thoroughly and permanently cement the\ncrown to your tooth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Instances like a dislodged crown never happen at a convenient\ntime. Fortunately, if you follow these steps, you will be able to hang in there\nuntil your emergency dentist fixes everything up. Your smile will be good as\nnew in no time!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
