My temporary crown fell out what are the chances of something bad happening if I go back in 2 - 4 days to fix

it.I already asked something like this but wanted to know what my chances are of bad things happening, in that time is 2 to 4 days okay is there a chance they will have to take it out if so how high how can I prevent this.
Answer:
Don't worry you should be fine. I'm a dental assistant, I've seen quite a few patients whose temps have fallen off or fractured, one even swallowed it, and they walk around without it for two weeks. As long as you don't have sensitivity don't worry, you'll be just fine until you get it cemented back in a few days. If it really bothers you try using some fixodent and put it in yourself. You can also go to a drug store and get some over the counter cement but that might make it harder for your dentist to remove the crown, he might have to section it. When you go back to get it recemented ask them if they have samples of a product called TempBond. That's what we use to cement temps in and we give our patients an individual sample pack for situations just like yours.Hope that helps! :)

you should be fine i have had patients go weeks with out it but do not wait to long they tooth can shift a little bit and the real crown will not fit

OK, there are not many chances that they'll take it out. Just relax.
If you feel OK without it I guess is not a front tooth, so... just go to your appointment in 2 to 4 days, everything should be ok.
Be sure to reaaaally brsuh your teeth and use some listerine. Try not to use mouth rinses with fluoride, it reduces the retention of the final crown when the temporary one has fallen

The same thing happened to me, don't leave the temp out for too long because the teeth will shift and then your permanent crown will not fit. My dentist said to put a bit of toothpaste on the inside of the crown and put it back on until he could re-cement it. Good luck!

you will be fine. The worse thing that will happen is the tooth may shift a little. That just means that the dentist will have to grind the permanent crown a little before cementing it in your mouth
