My Crown Looks and Feels Too Big. Is This Normal?

Q.

Hello. I had a lower right incisor crown fitted and it appears and feels too big for my mouth, it also shows metal at the back of tooth and you can see a black outline were my gum is. Is this normal? I cannot close my teeth together or they rub off each other. It looks to big when you look at the back and feel the front with your finger. I’m very disappointed with the work that was carried out. What should I do and how should it look? Thank you.

I’m not happy with my crown, what should I do?

Q.

Hi there, wondered if you could help me with something? I just got a custom made zirconia abutement made and a zirconium crown put in. It was for a front tooth very close to the middle of my lower jaw. My question is why is the abutement so big for such a small space and the crown was very big and thick in the back and when over the back of my natural gum line. I thought of this is that the abutement is not custom made???? And the work he done of my crown was very poor.The dentist told me he made the crown to be bigger on the back to cover the custom made abutement. I don’t understand why a custom made abutment in the first place is so big and looks like a pre-fabricated one to me.
