Lost Filling or Crown in Berwick

Urgent Care for
Lost Filling or Crown

Lost filling or dental crown leaves the inner structure of your tooth exposed to bacteria, temperature changes, and pressure while chewing. Prompt dental care seals the vulnerable area, stops sensitivity, and prevents further structural damage or deep decay. Call Woodleigh Waters Dental on (03) 9702 0234 to restore your filling or crown.

Losing a restorative filling or crown can happen suddenly, often leaving behind sharp edges or noticeable sensitivity. Whether caused by chewing sticky foods, aging dental materials, or underlying decay, our Berwick team provides fast, durable solutions to protect and restore your natural tooth.

UNDERSTANDING

Your Lost Filling or Crown

Timely evaluation protects the underlying tooth structure and prevents secondary decay.

01

Why do fillings or crowns fall out?

Recurrent decay beneath the restoration, natural wear of dental cement over time, chewing sticky foods, or heavy teeth grinding can cause fillings and crowns to loosen.

02

What should you do if a crown comes off?

Keep the crown safe, avoid chewing on that side of your mouth, and bring it to your appointment—if undamaged, it can often be disinfected and recemented.

03

How we treat a lost filling or crown?

We inspect the exposed tooth, remove any hidden decay, clean the area thoroughly, and either recement your existing crown or place a brand-new, tooth-colored filling or custom crown.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Is a lost filling or crown considered a dental emergency?

Yes, while it may not always cause severe pain immediately, the exposed tooth is vulnerable to infection and physical damage, so it should be treated promptly.

Never use household glue, as it contains toxic chemicals and can damage your tooth. Temporary dental cement from a chemist can offer short-term protection until your dental visit.

If your existing crown is undamaged and the natural tooth beneath is healthy, we can often clean and recement it. If structural damage or decay is present, a replacement will be crafted.
