Have you had a dental crown re-cemented after it fell off ?

I’ve never had a dentist re-cement a crown. They always make a new one and charge me a thousand bucks claiming, “it won’t fit on the post anymore.”
How about you? My gold crowns are sixty years old. That is my definition of “a good run.” My dentist told me, “my dad’s gold crowns have been in there for forty years.”
