Hello sir, kindly consult your Dentist and check your crown...  The crown should fit properly on your teeth without any space in between your teeth... It's better to check the crown and change it if required...

After the root canal treatment the teeth is to be covered by crown or a proper filling. If that is not present then you will have a problem of food lodgement as well as fracture of the treated tooth. Please do the needful and don’t use tooth puck to clean inbetween the teeth as it may injure the gums and cause pain. Gargle with water after every meal and use floss to clean
