Types of Lost or Damaged Dental Restorations

Crowns and fillings can fail for many reasons. Knowing what happened helps us prepare the right treatment before you arrive.

Lost Filling

Fillings can fall out due to decay underneath, normal wear, or biting on something hard. The exposed cavity is vulnerable to bacteria and sensitivity.

Lost Crown

A crown that has come off completely leaves the prepared tooth exposed. The tooth underneath is weaker and more sensitive without its protective cap.

Loose Crown

A crown that wobbles or shifts when you chew but hasn’t fallen off yet. This usually means the cement has failed or there is decay underneath.

Broken Filling

Part of the filling has cracked or chipped away. You may feel a rough edge with your tongue or notice increased sensitivity in the tooth.

Temporary Crown Fell Off

Temporary crowns are designed with weaker cement so they can be removed easily. They fall off more frequently than permanent crowns, especially with sticky foods.

Old Crown Failure

Crowns typically last 10-15 years. Over time, the cement weakens, the margins can develop decay, and the crown may need replacement.

What to Do Right Now

Follow these steps to protect your tooth until you can see us:

  1. Keep the crown if you find it — your dentist may be able to re-cement it, saving you the cost of a new crown.
  2. Rinse it gently — clean the crown with warm water. Do not scrub the inside surface.
  3. Try to place it back temporarily using denture adhesive — a small amount of denture adhesive (NOT super glue) can hold it in place. This is a temporary fix only.
  4. Apply clove oil for pain — a drop of clove oil on the exposed tooth can provide temporary numbing relief.
  5. Avoid sticky or hard foods on that side — eat soft foods and chew on the opposite side to prevent further damage.
  6. Call for a same-day appointment — the longer the tooth is exposed, the higher the risk of decay or fracture.

When to Seek Immediate Care

Call us right away if you experience any of the following:

  • Sharp pain when eating or drinking
  • Dark discoloration visible under the old crown
  • Swelling around the tooth or in your gums
  • Your crown keeps falling off repeatedly
  • You swallowed pieces of the filling or crown

These signs may indicate decay or damage that needs prompt treatment.

A Tooth Without Its Crown Is Vulnerable to Decay and Further Damage

The prepared tooth underneath a crown is not designed to function on its own. Without protection, it can crack, develop decay, or become infected. Call Divine Smiles for same-day crown repair.

My wisdom tooth chipped and gave me extreme pain on Friday night. I couldn't find a dental office willing to take me on Saturday. Sunday Morning I couldn't take the pain as it escalated to my jaw and though out other teeth. After searching on google I found this was the ONLY dental office that was open on a Sunday and takes walk-ins. The wait time was minimal and the young lady at the front desk was so understanding and helpful. The tech who took photos of my teeth was patient and Dr. Yanatan Zakinov was the best dentist I've ever met. He was straightforward, honest, and didn't try to talk about anything else but the problem I was having. He looked at my teeth and knew right away an extraction of my wisdom tooth had to be done. He was careful to make sure there was no pain and kept insisting that I let him know if I feel any pain. Within 20 minutes of seeing him, my tooth was extracted and my pain was gone. I 100% recommend going there and I'm looking forward to my future appointments with them.

I was a walk in emergency appointment on a Sunday morning and ended up needing two teeth extracted. I also happen to have anxiety surrounding dental visits so I was unsure of what to expect (I was here from out of town). Dr. Jacob was very understanding and gentle with the procedure. He took time to discuss options with me and did not push for anything extra or unnecessary. If I lived locally I would have gladly continued on with them as my primary dental care providers.

Like other reviews I had a similar experience. I was in a lot of pain, in need of an extraction. Divine Dental got me in within an hour after I called. Dr. Alex broke things down simply and was kind; As well as his assistant. This will be my new dental office. Thanks to everyone who helped today, from the front desk to the x-ray tech. You all made a difficult time a little easier to manage.

Reasons Dental Crowns Fall Off

Understanding why crowns come loose helps prevent future problems.

Severe or sudden toothache that won't respond to over-the-counter pain relief
Cracked, chipped, or broken teeth from accidents or biting injuries
Knocked-out (avulsed) permanent teeth
Dental abscess with swelling, fever, or pus drainage
Lost or broken crowns, fillings, or veneers

Frequently Asked Questions

Questions about what to do when you lose a dental crown.

What should I do when my dental crown falls off?

Keep the crown in a safe place and avoid eating on that side. If you still have the crown, bring it with you as it may be possible to recement it. Do not try to glue it yourself. Call Divine Smiles at 203-865-1480 for same-day care.

Can a lost crown be put back on the same day?

In many cases, yes. If the crown and underlying tooth are in good condition, we can recement it during your visit. If a new crown is needed, we place a temporary crown the same day. Call 203-865-1480 for an appointment.

Does insurance cover a lost crown replacement?

Most dental insurance plans cover crown replacement, though there may be a waiting period depending on your plan. We accept Medicaid, HUSKY Health, and most major plans. Call 203-865-1480 to verify your coverage.

Is a lost crown a dental emergency?

A lost crown should be treated promptly to protect the exposed tooth from decay, sensitivity, and further damage. While not always a medical emergency, it should be addressed within a day or two. Call Divine Smiles at 203-865-1480.
