So I got the CT - that wasn't anything special.
But I did have a little accident yesterday. I was calmly eating a sandwich when my crown fell off So I called the clinic and got an emergency appointment for today.
I was a bit sad but not surprised. The crown did fit but it was a thee whee bit off. And especially with not having a proper bite it is very hard to understand for me or explain how it is off. As I don't really know how to close my teeth properly. The only point in my mouth where my bottom and top teeth meet are where the crown is and that is not a biting area. So... I kinda feel it was a weird emotional subconscious decision where i was kind of happy it fell off on its own. We couldn't really adjust anything on it as there is no bite we can adjust it to.
So I went in today. My dad was really pissed but he doesn't understand exactly the situation in my mouth. But being pissed because of a simple procedure going wrong is understandable. Anyhow I was kind of ready to complain in a sensible sarcastic way... but my lead doc was in the examine room with my Miss Doc when I got there and he gave her quiet a lecture that even I started feeling bad. Then they both examined in every detail both my tooth and the crown to figure out what could have gone wrong and then my lead doc stayed for the hole procedure to make sure everything goes fine. Because they had to adjust both the base of the tooth and the crown a bit this way actually it fits much much much better. The difference is probably a nano-millimeter but it feels way more comfortable and stable. Funnily it wasn't wobbly or anything I could chew on it fine and it survived two impression sessions when it didn't come off. So I still think it was partly my subconscious trying to get rid of it haha.
Anyhow going through the whole procedure there really is a crazy time sensitivity and step by step procedure where something went wrong between the first 40 seconds of applying the crown and heating the glue material. Then my doc stayed behind for a second to sincerely apologies I could tell she felt both bad for me and for herself. But in the end I funnily feel a thee whee bit happier that it turned out this way and we didn't have to drill and whatever to make any adjustments later on.
