I had a tooth extracted today. It had been
crowned with gold. They gave me
back the gold crown, tooth still in it of
course.

I seem to recall hearing that Coca-Cola
actually dissolves teeth. Is that
a workable solution to removing the old tooth
from the gold crown? Is
there a better one?

Try a stronger acid. The Phosphoric and Citric
acids in Coke are weak and slow.

Maybe HCL/Muriatic? Might even try a little
battery electrolyte --that's
Sulfuric.

Don't try a mix of Nitric and Sulfuric:-)
