Hi:
I had root canal done and a crown and post fixed to my teeth 2 years back. I felt that this tooth was loose. So I went to the dentist and he tried to take off the crown very hard, but it did not come out. By doing this he must have cracked the tooth. He left it and told me to come when the crown falls off.
Now the whole tooth with the crown and post has fallen off with the root intact. I am very scared to go back. I gargled with warm salt water. Cleaned the whole tooth and pushed the whole thing back in place. What shall I do? Does it cost me too much? Could my dentist fix it? Is it going to be painful?
