What can I do about preventing food from getting stuck in a crowned tooth?

Wednesday, April 6th, 2011
Q.

Dear Sir/Madam

I had a crown fitted over a tooth about 2 months ago. The tooth had a filling about 13 years old and my current dentist recommended a crown as opposed to a replacement filling. The filling was done in a way that I could not floss properly between the teeth and that’s why I wanted to do something about it.
About 2 months after the crown being fitted, I constantly have a feeling food gets stuck in between teeth and not even flossing helps. When I run my nail underneath the crown it smells really unpleasantly. Does this mean the food somehow gets underneath the crown and rots there?
I am regretting having the crown fitted.
What is the best thing to do now?

I very much appreciate an answer to my problem.

Yours sincerely

A.

I have a missing tooth, a denture and crowns, could I get braces and an implant?

Friday, March 25th, 2011
Q.

I had 6 crowns placed on my front top teeth 8 years ago. Two years ago, one of the crowns came off as the tooth inside it snapped and I had the rest of the snapped tooh extracted. I now wear a denture for the missing tooth but the rest of the crowns and teeth inside them are in good condition. So now I only have 5 crowns left and one tooth missing. I would like to have an implant for the missing tooth. However, my front crowns stick out more than I would like. Is it possible to have braces to move my crowns back and then have the implant after when my teeth move inwards. My bottom teeth also need to moved inwards.

A.
Yes you could try braces but t… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

I was very ill after a tooth cracked and gold crown came out, why was this?

Tuesday, March 22nd, 2011
Q.

A year following crowning of a molar with a gold crown my tooth cracked down to the root causing the crown to dislodge and leading to a very bad abscess which had to be drained and the tooth subsequently removed . I was really quite ill over this time. Today I took the offending crown to a place that purchases gold and on thorough testing they found no gold but only base metal. This was a crown from an N.H.S dentist and sold to me as gold. Would it be a reason why I became so unwell and is this common practice to describe a gold crown as such when it is not? I have since had another crown ( porcelain) which has a black mark centraly is this something I should have cause to complain about? Thank yo in advance for your answer
