Hi:It's best to go to a dentist right away to evaluate the loose crown.  Bitiing with a loose crown can break the tooth.  In terms of color you might want to consider either redoing the crown or doing work on adjacent teeth to match the front teeth.Best,Dr. Maddahi

Simple thing to do - make a dental appointment ASAP as loose crowns sometimes are loose because the cement has washed out. Also really often they are loose because decay has occurred on the tooth and the grip the crown has on the tooth is much less. The sooner you see a dentist the less expensive it will be to get the loose tooth fixedGood luckKind regardsThomas Dey, BDS, MSc
