Pain after crown fixation

2017-12-28 14:57:01
Hi I did my root canal treatment in September 2017 and crown fixation on 26th December 2017. After the crown is fixed i am feeling the pain only on that particular tooth while biting. There was no pain after root canal but after the crown is fixed I’m having pain especially when I bite using that tooth. What might be the reason ?

There must be some high point on the crown Visit the dentist, he will grind it off and pain will subside But do it fast otherwise situation may worsen

Cause of pain might be one of the following 1) high points on crown 2) tight contacts between crown and neighbouring teeth 3) flossing not regular

Hi mam, Crown fixing over root canal treated teeth will require some adjustments even after one or two weeks so better report to your Dentist regarding the discomfort and get correct it earlier
Health Tips
Try to visit your Dentist for post operative checkup

Very common cause of pain after crown fixing is extra height in the crown which is called as high point. Kindly ask your doctor to do the necessary adjustments. It will solve your problem.
