Lost crown or filling
Crown fell off in Orlando?
Keep the crown if you still have it. Tell Dr. Sidawi whether it is temporary or permanent and whether the tooth hurts. He can discuss the next suitable visit before you come over.
The phone is reachable day or night. Visits are arranged before you come over; the office is not staffed overnight.
We do not bill insurance. Ask for a consultation estimate when you contact us.
What should you do with the crown?
- Keep it in a clean container and bring it to the dentist.
- Avoid chewing hard foods on that side, especially if the tooth is sensitive.
- Do not use household glue or force the crown back into place.
Can the same crown go back on?
Sometimes it can. Bring the crown with you. After examining the crown and tooth, Dr. Sidawi can tell you whether it can be put back on or the tooth needs another repair.
Did a temporary crown or filling come out?
Tell us what came out, whether you still have it, and whether the exposed tooth hurts. The right next step depends on the tooth and the work already done. If severe pain is the main problem, see the toothache guide.
When to seek emergency medical care
If you have swelling with trouble breathing or swallowing, go to an emergency department instead of waiting for a dental visit.
