Yes, you can drink through a straw with a temporary crown.
Thank you for asking the question! Yes, You can drink through a straw with a temporary crown. In fact, you may even drink with cups or glass the usual ways you drink without using a straw.

A straw should not be a problem with a provisional crown. Avoid drinking through a straw after oral surgery.
Yes, just try to avoid hard or sticky foods that may break or dislodge the temporary crown. If a temporary crown comes off, call your dental office to have it placed back on immediately as not having the temp crown on can allow the tooth to shift out of place.
