WHY CROWNS COME OFF This is one of the most common emergencies we see. There are 3 common reasons: 1) Decay under the crown: Yes, decay can start around the edges of the crown and then work its way under the crown. This usually means a new crown! 2) Crown is "high" - it hits too soon when you bite: This can be easily adjusted and the crown can be recemented and be as good as new.3) The tooth that the crown fits on Is too short: This is a design problem and usually means a new crown. Remember that the best treatment for a crown coming off is to prevent it from happening in the first place. Come in for a checkup so we can help you avoid pain and embarrassment |
