Have you noticed that a crown has come off? We may be able to fix it right away. It is also possible that there was an underlying reason for the crown to come loose, requiring some extra work. If the tooth under the crown has a shape that does not offer enough retention for the crown to stay on for many years, the tooth may need to be re-prepped and a new crown made. We will take a look and let you know if the crown can be cemented back on as is, or if a new crown may be required.
It is best to make sure you get help right away! Left for too long, a lost tooth crown can cause dental decay, disease, and pain.
Call us at 303-460-9366. We offer emergency appointments and are here to help.
