Prime reasons for early cap dislodgement:
1. Excess saliva contact with the cement during fixing
2. Discrepancy on chewing surface
3. Improper size and shape of cap leading to improper retention. There is a particular shape, dimensions(crown height) and tapering angles that need to be incorporated into the tooth on which the cap is being placed. Failing to do so leads to early cap dislodgement
4. Forceful gargling or chewing immediately after cap placement.
It can be any of the above reasons. So better report to a dentist for clinical examination and appropriate treatment. Not a big problem though! Can be fixed on early reporting. Take care!
