Issue with Implanted tooth
I got my implant surgery done 7 months back and the final tooth placed 2 weeks ago! well I think I'm having a bite issue because everytime I bite the first bite (touch) is between my lower tooth and that crown! I'm worried that this is putting pressure on the crown and the implant, my dentist said it is normal and the other teeth will grow and adjust with it! I'm really worried as it seems like the crown slightly moved forward due to pressure!
Is it normal? or should I see another dentist?

Your dentist should adjust the crown height if it is slightly high. If the crown is high it can put pressure on the implant and loosen the crown.
