Strange feeling associated with permanent crown

[insulation]

Back on 7/22/07 this same topic was started by girlmovingtobos and daisyfay, I am having the identical problem in a crown that was put in during august.  My dentist gave me peridex a few weeks ago to try to help but but this changed nothing.  Was curious what they found?

their comments were:
I had several crowns fitted just a week ago. Like you I felt and looked fine at first. Since then, my teeth have been incredibly sensitive and I have felt nauseous. Nothing tastes or smells the same any more. My mouth constantly fills with saliva. I feel tired and lethargic. I was in excellent health before I had the treatment. I'm beginning to wonder if I'm allergic to any of the materials used. I cannot offer any advice but I certainly know what you are going through. It's not a case of "mind over matter" as has been suggested to me. I'm hoping all this is temporary. Do keep us informed of your progress.
and
I had four Empress porcelain crowns bonded on July 3rd. When I had the temporarys on, they felt fine and I felt like myself. After I had these put on (they look great), I felt immediately nauseated. I think it is the bonding material that doesn't agree with my system. I've had intense pain for the past 2.5 weeks. The pain comes and goes. For the most part, today, it is gone. My question is is that I feel weird. I don't feel like myself - normally perky and happy. I feel a general sense of malaise. My jaw and face sometimes spasm. My appetite is not normal and certain foods cause me to feel ill whereas they didn't before.

I have had my old crowns replaced with 8 Empress crowns, (6 weeks ago) you could see the metal margin on my old ones even though they were fine, but i thought i would treat myself. Since getting the new ones i have had to take painkillers every 3-4 hours, even through the night. My gums are all swollen and i keep salivating with the pain. I cant drink or eat hot and cold things, every thing has to be tepid. I cant even stand opening my mouth outside on a cold day.

My whole mouth, jaw and face hurts and i'm totally miserable. i feel like i'm never going to fell normal  again. I have paid three and a half thousand pounds to feel miserable! I wish i had my old ones back in. I am going back to the dentist on monday and she is going to x-ray them, thats not going to help the pain i am in!

Maybe a reaction to the metal in the crowns...however one post said they were empress crowns...so, there is no metal there.  Or maybe a reaction to the cement...I don't think I've ever heard of either of these, but it could be that.
