How can you secure a post and crown permanently in your mouth without going to a dentist?
You really can't. It's a procedure that needs to be done by a qualified professional. It's important to determine why the post and crown came off in the first place. If the underlying cause is recurrent decay, that will be ignored at the risk of losing the tooth. It's usually best to avoid shortcuts in parachuting and dentistry.

Why does the Navy require to have wisdom teeth removed?
I'm not exactly sure what the Navy policy is, but I do know that on board most ships and submarines, they do not have the resources, manpower, or time to properly extract wisdom teeth. Having them removed prior to deployment (which can last many months or even a year or more) can avoid a foreseeable problem, which under the right circumstances, could jeopardize a mission.
Combat conditions are stressful enough without having the sometimes debilitating pain associated with erupting or impacted wisdom teeth.
See if you have wisdom teeth when in a submarine which means youre underwater with water pressure which may cause eruption of youre wisdom teeth.Think about that if your teeth erupt when in the middle of a mission we dont want you moaning and groaning all the time.
Most general dentists do not provide general anesthesia or sedation. You would want to see an oral surgeon for this.
It is not unreasonable to want to be put to sleep for wisdom tooth removal, particularly if all four are removed at once. However, understand that anesthesia increases the risk of complications significantly. And it is much more expensive.
Having said that, millions of wisdom teeth are removed every year, both with general anesthesia and without, and the vast majority are without problems. General anesthesia can make it a far less emotionally traumatic and far more pleasant.
If you are totally freaked out about getting your wisdom teeth out, see an oral surgeon and discuss your options.

A biteforce is the force applied by the chewing muscles when biting or chewing.
From my experience with wisdom teeth removal, yes, it is very normal. I can't even tell you how long it was before I was able to open my jaw wide like before. Not only do the stitches in your mouth keep the skin very tight, you're also going to have a stiff jaw from having your mouth open through the surgery! It is normal to have decreased function of your mouth for a while after surgery. But definitely talk to your dentist if you think something is really not normal.
