can i superglue it back on? I only visited my orthodontist the other day and he put a new one on and now a layer has come off :-(

Emm is right. DON'T USE SUPERGLUE!! You will get nasty bacteria trapped under the crown that could cause you to lose the tooth entirely. And when you go back to the dentist, he may have to destroy the crown to get it off if you use superglue. You don't want to pay for another one, do you? Go back and let him glue it on for you.
Happy Holidays!

No don't use superglue you can buy a cement from boots for this but it is only temporary untill you get to the dentist try first to see the dentist though good luck

its not a cap..you wear them on your head..it must be a veneer or crown and i wouldn,t recommend you use superglue..it will damage the tooth underneath..try to see your dentist asap..i,m a dental nurse by the way

DO NOT USE SUPER GLUE!! This will not work and also may cause problems for your dentist when they try to sort it for you.
I would advise that you phone your dentist or ring the dental helpline for further advice.
You could try some temporary filling cement from your local pharmacy? might do this trick!

I've had this happen to me, and it's no big deal - go back to the dentist, it's usually a 5-minute fix, and if they charge you it shouldn't be much.
