Hello Please visit your dentist! Even if food lodgement is occurring around the cap you would have sensitivity. Professional cleaning of your teeth should be done once in 6 months. Your dentist needs to take an X Ray to evaluate the condition of that capped tooth.
Next Steps
Visit the dentist soon
Health Tips
Rinse your mouth with salt water/ mouth wash.
