I have an appointment on Tuesday (soonest they could fit me in as it isn't an emergency)

But I'd like to buy something in case it falls out over the weekend - I have work on Monday Sad

You can get emergency dental kits... Can't place the shop in my head right now (maybe Tesco?) but I'm sure a chemist will do them. They have a glue in that should do until you get seen.

Go to a pharmacy - there is a specialist product for fixing loose crowns that you can buy over-the-counter.

It's called Toofypegs. I had a pack in my bathroom cabinet before my crown got so crap that it was beyond repair! Got it from my local chemist for a few quid.

Why do you need to stick it back in? Us it right at front?

My temporary crown came out, and stayed in for 24hrs with toothpaste holding it in....

Yep my big tooth at the front - I couldn't go to work with a post!
I bought some stuff - but it might stay in until Tuesday afternoon (fingers crossed)

Hopefully whatever you've bought will help keep it in. Just eat soup till Tuesday Wink

It never bloody fell out - just wobbled and wobbled for over a week!

It took the dentist ages to actually get it out! and he stuck it back in in about a tenth of the time it took to get out!!

Thanks everyone Grin < I look like that now
