So I had a crown come off unexpectedly...there was no decay evidence...she burred off a little discoloration and made a brand new crown. The permanent was placed no numbing (my wishes) they offered...bite looked good.
it's been a week and a half...i have no issues with most of my normal food....with exception of flax crackers (whole flaxseed baked on a sheet and cut into crackers) so probably harder than a normal cracker...It's not pain just kind of comfortable... I thought avoiding it for a week might let it settle but if it's better it's only a bit
could it really be a bite issue? bruised from being pushed on a lot...she was holding pressure on it for a while there was a tiny bit of bleeding from the temp being removed.
I really don't want to go for a bite adjustment because I think I'm afraid they'll say it's something worseand I'll end up losing this tooth. I have no intentions of agreeing to a root canal on this one. The tooth that is left under the crown is pretty short so I have my doubts this crown will stay. A crown legthening is not something I want either...
I feel like i'm wasting her time by going. Could a crown look perfect but change the bite somewhere else and cause an issue. i feel like i should notice a bite issue even when I'm not eating....not only on certain consistancies.
I mean how bad is it just to leave it? I'm cool with eating harder things on the other side. Most of me just wants to ignore it.
