I have a gap between my crown and my gum, what do you suggest?
Q. I had two (2) caps installed at the dentist. One feels ok, but the other has a slight gap between the top of the cap and the gums. The gums just barely touches the top of the cap so as a result, the gums just above the cap stays red, inflamed and is hard to brush because it’s painful. Thanks in advance for and information.,
A. hi , you have to check if this gap is because the crown does not fit or it is irritation that will settle with better cleaning.return to your dentist or get a second opinion
I had caps put on some of my teeth about 6 months ago, im not sure if before there was a little gap but recently i did notice it. My bottom 3 teeth that had caps on hurt also sometimes when i chew, i think its from when food is getting around the little gap. Also noticed same thing on the top 3 i had capped but i have no problem form them unless i poke them with my nail. when i try to look close it seems a little gray/black around that gap… is this normal? or do you think possibly this whole time none of these caps were the right size….
My front teeth poke very far forward, so much so that I cannot bite food and I can fit my thumb in the cap between my bottom teeth. It ia about 6 or 7 od my teeth that are infront of my bottom teeth. Also my back teeth have been qorn down quite a bit. Can this be corrected and how much would it cost?
A short clinical assesment at a dentist will help to provide a rough idea of costs
