The dentist tried to reglue it back with a permenant seal but it fell off again, she said there's nothing she could do but to reglue it every time it fells out, because I have a perfectly health roots, she don't want to try tooth implant since it's not roting or swaying. Can I just glue it my self with a permanant or super glue instead??
My Crown fell off along with a piece with my teeth inside?
If part of your "natural tooth" fell off inside the crown, this may have compromised the margins of the prep. Continuing to re-cement a crown is not “correcting the problem” rather it’s adding to it. There is a reason this crown keeps coming off, it doesn’t fit anymore. Either the part of the tooth that came off, or recurrent decay, has compromised the margins of the crown so that when it’s re-cemented it will “leak inside the crown” causing a cement failure again. It’s the “leaking” that is the serious problem. This slow steady leaking of bacteria is coating the inside of the “crown and your tooth” not only causing the cement to fail but it’s coating the “uncovered” portion of your natural tooth allowing easier and highly possible decay to take place and also allowing bacteria to saturate the dentin tubules of this uncovered tooth possibly reaching the pulp or nerve that could necessitate the need for a root canal in the very near future.
I would suggest that you have another dentist examine this tooth and give their assessment. Without looking at the tooth or an x ray, I would say you possibly need decay removed, a pin build up and a new crown. A post (as someone suggested) is never placed in a tooth unless it’s had root canal therapy.
Find another dentist, one who will solve the problem, not make it worse or add to it. I hope that I’ve been of some help and that you will seek out another dentist with more experience in crown and bridge work very soon. Good luck!
Additional information: Do not use super glue, you will most definitely cause a root canal therapy to be needed and likely to cause the need for the tooth to be extracted.
Reply:no u might glue ur cheek or something by accident...go back to the dentist ask her put something stronger on it...
Reply:you need a post and crown, if your dentist hasn't offered this find a new dentist This problem isn't unusual obviously you had recurrent decay...it happens a crown is only guaranteed for 5 years A crown with a pin will look no different, does not damage the integrity of the tooth it will cost a little more then just a crown but will be worth it. Absolutely do not attempt to glue this yourself.
Reply:Unfortunately, super glue won't work. For one thing, superglue works only on clean, dry surfaces, and it's all wet inside your mouth-- It won't set properly in that kind of environment.
Since the crown fell off with a piece of your tooth inside, the tooth has fractured and thus the crown no longer has sufficient tooth structure to "grab" onto. No matter how strong a glue you use, it's never going to stay on anymore.
Either the post + core + crown all need to be redone if there is enough tooth left, or the tooth needs to be pulled. You might want to get a few second opinions to help you decide which way to go.
Good luck.
Reply:no super glue will kill the nerves in you tooth seen a guy in my office that did that,was bad...have you asked her about a new crown that fits better..is she using permentant cement?
