New crown with existing removable clasp partial denture. Just got permanent crown on tooth #18 for the first time on this tooth.

teresa2017
I have an existing partial denture sitting next to the original tooth18. I overheard the dentist telling her assistant and the x-ray tech that the crown is "tilted". 24 hours later I still noticed the pain in the gum when I put in and pulled out the denture with the tip of the clasp digging into the gum, with a little blood left on the very tip of the clasp. When I eat, there's pain in the tooth from the denture rubbing against the gum, both from the clasp and the inside of the denture. HELP!!
