Can Superglue Be Used In Teeth?

Sounds silly but I had a crown come loose and have heard superglue works to cement it back in.That doesn't appear as it would be a safe alternative to going to the dentist but is there anything in the glue in that small amount that would be toxic or harmful?

Hello, thank you for consulting with HCM.
No it is not good to use superglue to fix the crown again . As it can harm in future because you can swallow it with saliva.
Better you should visit your dentist again and get it fixed, which will be safe for you.
Hope it will help you.
