Is there anything I can use to temporarily hold my dental implant in place? (Photo)

Asked By:b29bubble in Cleves, OH

My front dental implant has fallen out. The screw is attached to the implant still (although a piece if it is broken off into my gums). Can i use Temp Dent, poli-grip or super glue to hold my implant in until i can get to the dentist? I can't go around without my front tooth. Also can you give me an approximate of how much it will be to replace it? Can i just reuse my implant that i have?
