Can you tell me what to do about dental crown breaking?

See dentist: Most likely what has happened is that the porcelain has chipped off the metal substructure. You will probably need to have the crown replaced. See your dentist to have him evaluate the crown.

See your Dentist immediately. Delay is counter-productive.
