What if it broke off a little peice of the tooth?


Answers:

GERDIE,
WHEN AN OLD CAP FALLS OUT, A DENTIST WILL VERIFY THAT IT IS IN SOUND SHAPE, THEN AN X-RAY WILL CONFIRM THAT YOUR TOOTH IS GOOD SHAPE TO STILL HOLD THE CROWN.
IF EVERYTHING GOES WELL, THEN THE DENTIST CAN RE-CEMENT IT BACK IN PLACE.
