Gentle hurts on crown - dangerous
My daughter is 19yrs old. In an accident her front tooth was half broken and dentist had done rct and porcelain crown fitted. My daughter always says that when she eats, spoon or water bottle touches on it. If spoon hurts gently on the crown, will it be problem for crown?She is always afraid taking her crown. In vehicle drinking water bottle lightly hurts her crown. Is it harmful for future? She is so younger. I am very concerned about my daughter. Please help me clearing my doubts.

A porcelain crown is as strong as your natural tooth and some of the qualities maybe even stronger than the natural tooth structure. Anything that touches the natural teeth during functions like chewing will touch the Crown also. So objects like spoon will always come in contact with the teeth. Care definitely has to be taken to avoid excessive force or undue injury which can damage even the natural teeth but otherwise these things will not make a difference to the integrity of the Crown.
