Should I buy over the counter cement to put back the crown and post until my doctor appointment about 20 days from now?

My crown and the post attached to it got loose two days ago and came off today. I do not have dental insurance and will buy it as soon as possible; however, it will not come into effect until the beginning of the next month which is 18 days away. I am not sure what to do in this situation to minimize the damage.
