Food depositing even after fixing crown
I'm having problem of food depositing between molars and having some pain when food stuck . I went with this complaint to dentist . They mentioned I have delay and it infected root .
They did root canal and also fixed crown . I have gone for zirconia crown.
While fixing crown dentist drilled the crown to make it well for chewing . I don't know why this is needed even after taking measurements?
I felt little discomfort but okay to chew food . I thought I have to habituate with new crown .
For few days food is again depositing between my crown teeth and next teeth . Same issue which I have earlier .
I don't know why same problem I'm experiencing again after rtc and crown and after spending hefty amount for the same .
Is it problem with fixing crown ? Why there is gap again which is causing this food deposit issue .
What's the use of treatment done ?

According to me,it is important to see the pt. Clinically so consult your nearest dentist as soon as possible. If you are not able.brush twice a day,use interdental brushes for better cleaning and warm saline rinses twice daily

Rct and crown has been done for infected tooth.To close space between teeth orthodontic treatment or bridges has to be placed. You can consult through this for further details.

Every case is different.So to advise in particular a clinical checkup is required.But if the gap between 2 teeth is more you may need a joint crown.Also it's always advisable to do flossing or interdental brushing to maintain your oral hygiene after any crown is placed.
