Question:

permanent crown cement?

What color is the cement they use to put a permanent crown on. When I was flossing the other day this hard white stuff came out from between my teeth where the crown is. Could that be cement, should I be worried? That tooth had a root canal and a crown and the crown is sensitive when I eat hard foods on it.

Answer:

It is definately considered early, I have a crown as well and my cement is blue, the white that the floss got out was most likely plaque or something along those lines. A tenderness is to be expected this early on
Don't worry it's just the cement.Sometimes it gets on the gum line and it's just flaking off.Don't chew hard things on the side that you got your crown on.It takes some time for your gumline to adjust to the crown.
