While you wait for a permanent dental crown to be made, your dentist will likely place a temporary crown to protect the tooth. If a temporary crown becomes loose, you should contact your dentist right away.
Key takeaways:
- Try to avoid using the temporary crown to bite food, preferably avoiding chewing on the side of the mouth with the crown.
- Hard and sticky foods should be avoided as they could dislodge your temporary crown.
- You can still brush and floss your teeth, but you should brush and floss gently.
"However, if you normally use an electric toothbrush, you may want to switch back to a manual one for brushing your temporary crown, as it allows you to be gentler on your smile."
