So here is the story...Male 26 yrs old

- Root Canal and Stainless Steel Crown placed about 10 years ago in a third world country
- Held up solid until last week while brushing fell off
- Went to the dentist and wanted to re-glue the crown
- Dentist said he could not put it in and placed a temporary aluminum crown instead and opted me to go to an orthodontist to get the root canal checked out
- My RCT has never given me any pain at all and the dentist wants to do the entire RCT all over again costing me $500 to $900
- Personally i just want to put in a permenent crown

Questions:
- Can i keep holding onto the temporary aluminum crown unitl it falls off?
- How long for the temp. to fall off?
- What would your advise be?
