Q. I have a post crown which came loose, my dentist reseated it. He said that it maybe that the socket into which the post is inserted may have cracked, in which case he will have to replace the postcrown with a bridge. Is this the only possible alternative and what does it involve. I would appreciate your advice
A. It is often the only thing you can do when the root has cracked. You could also consider a dental implant as this wouldn’t mean drilling down the adjacent teeth which is often required for a bridge.
