Do you have advice on crowns and fixed bridges?

Monday, October 4th, 2010
Q.
I have lupus. My 2 front bottom teeth are in a bad condition – broken. My dentist recomended a resin bonded bridge (temp)- I would prefer a fixed bridge but with the lupus i am not sure what other options are available. To be honest most of my bottom teeth are in a bad state and i already have about 4 crowns – I will appreciate any advise. Thanks,

My crown is still feeling unnatural after two months. Is this normal?

Monday, October 4th, 2010
Q.

Problem is that the crown still feels unnatural after nearly 2 months. Cosmetically it looks great, however I can feel it rub on the inside of my cheek and is very distracting. Is this considered normal?,

My crowned tooth is really sensitive after being fitted recently. Will I need further treatment?

Tuesday, September 28th, 2010
Q.
I had a crown fitted over a back molar about 4 weeks ago,which had cracked after a long-term large filling. I didn’t require a root canal. The prep went fine but when the temp cover was taken off the dentist was unable to numb it and it was incredibly sensitive. Anyway, the crown was fitted and it was really sensitive to everything for a week then it subsided a bit. Now the tooth next to it is sensitive too! The crowned tooth is sensitive to very hot drinks and food but not as bad as it was and a little bit sensitive to very cold stuff too. Please tell me that I don’t require any further treatment as they couldn’t numb it last time I went and the prospect of drilling when I can feel it makes me feel ill!!! Many thanks,
A.
It is quite normal for the too… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)
