Recementing a Crown: I had a crown glued back on and now my gum is turning black. What could be causing this?
• Crown causes sensitivity? A few weeks ago, I had a crown put on a tooth that was cracked. The temporary was fine, but after the permanent was put on, it seemed uncomfortable. My tongue would hit it while talking sometimes and my tongue just felt funny, slightly numb, just like it was hitting the back of the crown. My dentist has adjusted it 3 times by grinding on it & others around it, but I don’t think he thinks there is anything wrong with it. I asked if possibly it was too big, and he insisted that wasn’t possible. Now, a crown on the bottom below the new crown has become sensitive to cold. Could my bite be off? I have had lots of crowns and never a problem like this. Hard to explain, but just isn’t right. …Visitor from TN (answer) • Temporary Crown Size: Should a temporary crown be the same size and shape as permanent? Do the crowns attached with screw function as well as the ones that held by cement? My dentist couldn’t make a good crown. He said that the implant was installed
