Can a dental crown fall off? What should I do if it does?

Yes. It can happen that the cement of a crown debonds over time and the crown comes off the tooth. In these situations, the best option is to take the crown to your dentist and let them assess the crown and the tooth. If both are fine, the crown can be recemented back on the tooth. If any of them are damaged, you will most likely need another crown to be made, with or without fixing the tooth.

Any surgical or invasive procedure carries risks, and we recommend seeking a second opinion from an appropriately qualified health practitioner before proceeding.
