Lost Filling or Crown
A filling or crown can come loose from wear, new decay, or biting something sticky. The exposed tooth can be sensitive and vulnerable to further damage, so it is best to protect it quickly.
What to do right now
- 1Keep the area clean by rinsing gently with warm water.
- 2Save the crown or piece of filling if it came out whole.
- 3Avoid chewing on that side until it is repaired.
- 4Stay away from very hot, cold, or sweet foods that may cause sensitivity.
- 5Call us so we can re-bond or replace the restoration promptly.
When to call us
