Visit your dentist.he will either take a new impression or get your old crown cemented again

Hi It is advisable to get another crown placed. The crown was helping her eat. If you want to get your old cap cemented then visit your nearby dentist and let them evaluate the cap and the teeth. Based on that the dentist will decide whether the old one can be used or she needs a new one. Till then do not eat anything hard from that side , otherwise the tooth might get injured

Yes of course ..the cap will just fit on the already prepared teeth.just dentist will take an impression and make a cap.

Usually crowns are placed on root canal treated teeth ,so there won’t be any pain in the tooth as the nerve of tooth is removed during root canal treatment. Replacement of a crown is a very minor procedure which is not even time consuming as tooth is already prepared and will need only modifying the preparation and taking measurements for crown. Hope that helps !

Change the cap. If the structure is too less go for post and core before doing crown

If the crown placed 25 years ago has come off and there is no pain, it does not mean treatment is unnecessary. At any age, crown replacement can usually be done comfortably with proper local anesthesia. Age alone is not a contraindication. The tooth should be clinically examined and X-rayed to assess remaining tooth structure and root health. If the tooth is sound, a new crown is the best and most durable option. If tooth structure is inadequate, alternatives such as a removable prosthesis or other conservative options may be considered. Delaying treatment can increase the risk of tooth damage or sensitivity, so a dental evaluation is advised before deciding.

Hello, It’s quite common for crowns placed many years ago to come off due to cement washout or normal wear over time. The fact that your mother is not experiencing any pain is a good sign. Age alone is not a contraindication for getting a new crown. In most cases, replacing a crown is a straightforward procedure and is usually comfortable for the patient. If the tooth structure underneath is already prepared and healthy, the dentist may only need to take an impression and fabricate a new crown, often without the need for anesthesia.

Hello Better to visit the dentist for physical examination because she’s not having pain as she doesn’t have sensation in the tooth But it’s always advisable to get the crown replaced and it is not a painful process

Hello! It’s great that you’re looking out for your mother’s comfort and confidence. Dealing with a 25-year-old crown falling off is actually a very common scenario in a dental office. Crown replacement is generally a painless and non-invasive procedure. Since she isn't currently in pain, the process usually involves cleaning the area and taking an impression. If the underlying tooth is healthy, no surgery or 'heavy' dental work is required.  ​However, we do need to see her for a quick clinical exam to check two things: 1) ​The integrity of the remaining tooth: We need to ensure there is no decay or fracture that occurred under the old cap. 2)​The 'Ferrule' effect: We need to see if there is enough solid tooth structure left to hold a new crown securely. ​If a new crown isn't feasible, we can discuss simpler aesthetic options like a composite bonding (a tooth-colored filling material) or a small removable partial bridge, which involve zero "drilling" or pain.  ​

Hello Kindly get an xray done then can comment on the treatment plan needed
