Hi there.
A few years ago I had a root canal on a molar, which was covered with a crown.
Today I was chewing on something, and the crown popped out. I looked in the mirror aghast at the dark-ish empty space. I've booked an appointment at the dentist tomorrow.
I was then fiddling about with the crown, and found I was able to pop it right back into place. But now I'm wondering whether I should leave it off until the appointment tomorrow, in case food/bacteria ended up in the socket while it was off? Or am I okay to leave it on?
Any advice appreciated!
