An inlay, onlay or crown has come loose or landed in your hand. Phone the clinic for advice before trying anything yourself, then have the tooth and the piece assessed.
Let's find a time
Custom restorations are fitted and then bonded or cemented, and that attachment can sometimes fail. It may be a problem with the seal, new decay underneath, a fracture, heavy biting forces or a combination of these. Looking at the piece alone seldom settles which one applies.
Polo Park is an area in Winnipeg, and residents dealing with this can reach our clinic on McPhillips Street by phone at (204) 338-3003. Ask what to do with the loose piece and how soon the tooth should be seen.
Explore tooth-colored restorations
A short call lets you explain what happened and get guidance suited to the tooth involved.
What matters most is the condition of the tooth beneath, since that decides what can happen next.
A piece may or may not be reusable, which depends on how it and the tooth have held up.
Two broad paths tend to emerge once the dentist has seen both surfaces. Your own findings determine which is realistic.
A restoration that is intact and still fits a healthy tooth might be considered for placement again.
Decay, fracture or a poor fit would lead to a fresh plan, which might differ from what was there before.
Nobody can say which path applies until the tooth has been examined. If another clinic placed the work, say so when you call.
The appointment focuses on why it came off as much as on what to do about it, since the cause influences the repair.
Request your visitTell us when it came off, what you were doing and approximately how old the restoration is, if you happen to know.
The dentist looks for decay, fractures and remaining support, and dental images may be taken if they would clarify things.
Where a likely cause can be identified, such as new decay or bite forces, it is described so that it can inform the plan.
You hear the options for that tooth, including what could be reused and what might have to be remade.
It is natural to want a quick fix at home. Hold off until you have phoned, and ask about looking after the tooth so that the guidance is specific to your situation.
If the tooth is painful or swollen, make that clear on the phone, and do not rely on the online form.
The waiting area window and a bench near reception.
Restorations can loosen for many reasons, and most of them are not about something a patient did. Feeling that gap in your mouth is unsettling, and you can say so.
An exposed tooth can react to temperature, so warn us if air or water feels sharp on that side.
Find out what to avoid on that side and how to manage cleaning before your assessment.
Ask the dentist to go through the likely cause, so that you know what is being addressed.
With the tooth restored again
A re-placed or remade restoration still relies on sound tooth, healthy margins and sensible loads, so a few things are worth keeping in mind.
Mention any fresh movement, odd taste or change in how the piece sits without delay.
Ask whether night-time habits could be playing a role, given how much forces can influence a restoration.
Regular brushing and interdental cleaning help manage the plaque that can lead to new decay at a margin.
Noticed movement again? Phone before it comes all the way off, if possible.
