Cosmetic Crowns Put in 3-4 Years Ago Have Always Hurt. I Found That the Margins Are Exposed. Why?

January 15, 2013
Asked By:lkayne

Several years ago I had cosmetic crowns put on. On one side of my mouth there has always been some sensitivity which I was told would go away. I recently had an implant put in (by a different dentist) on the other side of my mouth. I couldn't avoid the "sensitive" side anymore and it has been painful. I mentioned this to the dentist that did my implant and he took an X-ray which showed several exposed margins on a couple of teeth. I'm VERY unhappy and in pain. Any advice?
