Hi,
My crown fell out, with one third of post attached (remaining two thirds still attached in mouth). Do you think it would be possible to have a new post either on the crown or in the root canal (obviously after removal of remainder)?
I would be grateful for any advice.
Thanks.

Hi Denise,

It might be possible depending on how the crown was designed. If the post was attached to the crown then I would think you'll have to have the whole thing replaced. Talk to your dentist about the options.

Good luck.
