How do I care for a temporary crown?
Temporary crowns are fragile and meant only for short-term use. Avoid sticky or chewy foods that could pull it off. Do not chew on hard foods on that side. When flossing, pull the floss out sideways rather than snapping it up through the contact. If it falls off, reattach it with denture adhesive and call us right away.
