If your silver crown is coming off, then it is a great idea to schedule an appointment with your dentist to have it replaced or re-cemented. Taking it off yourself will only open your tooth up to decay and subsequently, greater sensitivity. If you do not like the silver crown, just ask your dentist for a more permanent, white tooth that matches your other teeth. Good luck and I hope this helps.

Hello, you should not remove or attempt to remove a silver crown unless it's on a loose baby tooth. If the crown has already fallen off, you can leave it off and get it remade by visiting a dentist. If it's loose, forcing it off could further break the tooth or crown. This is especially true if the tooth has a cavity.
