Pain in nearby teeth after crown
by julie_h, Jun 08, 2009 11:39AM
I had a crown done (permanent was placed all in the same office visit. my dentist makes it while i wait.) 12 days ago. It was in my back tooth on the bottom, and when the procedure was over I noticed there was a lot of blood around the teeth nearby. I have been in pain ever since and went back to the dentist a few days ago for him to look at it. He x-rayed and said it looked fine. Now, here I am 12 days out, and I still need two tylenol per day for pain. I often feel throbbing, I feel discomfort when I chew, and those teeth (the one with the crown and the two next to it) are sensitive to the cold / hot. Is this abnormal? Or, can this be attributed to the trauma of the crown procedure? Maybe this pain will go away on its own with more time to heal? Any advice?

The only thing is that do not fall in the trap of keep adjusting your bite. First have them figure out what is causing it, and before doing anything permanent, there are ways to figure this out temporarily as a test.
