Tooth pain in the presence of dental crowns can have various causes, even if there's no visible decay. Here are a few possibilities:
Trauma or Bite Issues: Dental crowns can sometimes alter your bite, leading to uneven pressure on certain teeth. This can cause discomfort or pain. If the crown is too high or improperly aligned, it might need adjustments.
Nerve Sensitivity: Sometimes, the nerve inside a tooth can become sensitive or irritated even after a crown is placed. This might result in occasional pain.
Gum Issues: If the gums around a crowned tooth become inflamed or infected, you might experience pain or discomfort.
Cracked Crown or Tooth: While crowns are durable, they can develop small cracks over time, which might lead to pain when you bite down or chew.
Sinus Issues: Sometimes, pain in upper teeth can be related to sinus problems. The roots of upper teeth are close to the sinus cavities, so sinus issues can manifest as tooth pain.
Underlying Dental Problems: Sometimes, pain in one tooth can radiate to nearby teeth, making it challenging to pinpoint the exact source.
Bruxism (Teeth Grinding): If you grind your teeth, it can lead to pain in teeth with crowns.
Given that you're experiencing tooth pain regularly, it's important to consult your dentist. They can examine your mouth, take X-rays if necessary, and determine the cause of your pain. Based on their assessment, they'll recommend the appropriate treatment, whether it's making adjustments to your crown, addressing gum health, checking for cracks, or addressing any other underlying issues. Don't ignore persistent or recurrent tooth pain; your dentist can help you find relief and prevent potential complications.
