When you have a shaky dental crown, you should first stop nibbling food with that tooth. If you bite hard with that tooth, the whole dental crown may come off. And that's the last thing you want.

Don't be surprised if you don't even have a stump that contains more than half of the original root. Occasionally when you lose a crown, it also steals with it loads of your remaining tooth material.

Above all, this is true if by accident you grind your tooth on something hard, like some snacks like nuts or chips, a stiff piece of steak or something gluey.

If your crown is temporary, then it shouldn't cause you too much grief if this comes to pass. Your permanent crown will be put in in just a little bit. So keep your composure. Just try not to use the side with the Florence loose dental crown when you munch.

But if a permanent crown is loose, then you should get in touch with me at once and schedule a visit at my office in Florence. A permanent dental crown that is unstable can certainly expose the root it's supposed to be guarding. It is feasible that you could lose your original tooth if the crown comes off with other materials.

While you are waiting to come in for your appointment, eat while avoiding the affected area and try not to eat hard, solid foods. You might lose some weight while you wait!

A permanent dental crown begins to get wobbly when the cement erodes at the bottom. That's where the crown is united with the base of the root. As you habitually drink and eat and brush your teeth, the glue will wane further and you will probably have a Florence loose dental crown.
