My Plate Doesn’t Feel Right, What Should I Do?

Q.
Hello. I am a 68 year old lady. My crown broke off next to my front teeth so the dentist did my front tooth with two side back teeth which she said would hold in better. Should the plate come half way down my teeth? My bite hits the plate and seems to push the bottom jaw to the side. It doesn’t feel right, it’s putting pressure on my front teeth wich are crowns too. I am really worried and don’t like wearing them. They cost me 290 pounds so what can I do? Thanks for your time.

Hi, thank you for getting in touch. I would advise that you ask your dentist for advice first, or maybe go for a second opinion. It’s impossible for me to give you specific advice about your own situation without having more information – this information would be gathered at an examination appointment.

Hope you find a solution soon. Regards,  Mark.
