The crown height must be low. Visit your doctor. He will take care of it. If it repeatedly comes out you need to see another doctor

A cap fixed with permanent cement should not come out like that. Consult your dentist again or take a second opinion
Health Tips
Avoid sticky things like eclairs or chewing gum etc which can pull your crown out
