I have a crown that keeps coming loose and the dental cement does not seem to keep it attached. My husband seems to think I should try to super glue it back on. I think he is sniffing the super glue. What do you think?
step away from the super glue...Probably the reason your crown keeps coming off is becuase there is decay on the tooth you need to get to the dentist and see what is going on with it. If there isn't any decay then they can just cement it back on and you should be good to go but you do need to go and get it checked. Good Luck
I think you should probably go to another dentist. I have many crowns have had no trouble. Some of them have been on 10 or more years. The super glue ingredients could get into your system cause you more problems.
Call the dentist who put this crown on. Super glue might hold it, but if you get it in the wrong place you will have a mess to deal with! Super glue is used in many medical areas...
Please do not use superglue to restore anything that goes into your mouth guys....Dentists use a specially formulated dental cement which is made to be bio compatible with the human body. Im assuming your crown is a permanent one and if so you need to go back to the dentist and he needs to examine the issue of why the crown is not staying cemented correctly. If it is a temporary crown then I can see why it is coming loose, the cement used for temp crowns must not be too adhesive that it cannot be removed hence the reasons they can come off.
