HELP? I had two crowns put on 3days ago! Pain in teeth & face...read on...?!


Question: HELP.? I had two crowns put on 3days ago! Pain in teeth & face...read on....?
As I said I had 2 crowns put on my left canine and the one just to the left of it 3 days ago. I'm having a little pain in the teeth and extreme sensitivity to cold things.
Yesterday, in my face I had pain on the bottom part of my cheek which I thought was normal but now it goes from the bottom of my cheek all the way up to my eye. It hurts to blink. What do you think is going on. Of course I'm going to call the dentist when they open. But any ideas for now.?Health Question & Answer


Answers:
It is possible that your crown may be placed to high or even low. I don't see that too often. I'm glad that you plan to call the dentist because he will be able to make that adjustment for you hopefully today and you shouldn't feel pain anymore or discomfort due to biting. Best of luck to you!Health Question & Answer

After my crown I was in total agony for about a week, worse every day, clear down through the bone and radiating out in all directions. I put off asking about it because I was afraid my $2000 tooth would have to be extracted.

When I finally went back to the dentist I asked her what was up. The crown was too thick (or placed too high, who knows) and also really flat, which made that tooth bear most of the impact when I bit or chewed because it didn't fit into the normal "zipper" that used to be there. Even though the tooth itself felt nothing, all that surrounding bone and tissue did. Misery.

She did one of those blue bite papers (bite, bite, grind, grind) and then filed it down with her dental drill. It took five minutes, required no needles, and she didn't even charge me. I felt better within hours and haven't had a problem since.

I hope that's what's going on with you. It's a really quick and easy thing to fix.Health Question & Answer
