My permanent crown fell off last night. I have an appointment with my dentist in 4 days and I already called and they told me they wouldn't be able to see me before this time. I'm worried about my teeth shifting or more problems occurring because I'm not sure if this is too much time to wait. Is there any advice for my situation while I wait?

Thank you for a great question. The price varies greatly depending on the material used, brand of the porcelain and experience of both , a doctor and a dental technician, who is actually fabricating it.
For example, porcelain crown with a metal base is an older technique and cost less....
Hi:
Most likely the bite has to be adjusted and make sure there is no grinding or clenching pressure on the crown as well. Please go back to your dentist right away to check the bite.
Best,
