  7. IS MY PERMANENT CROWN...

Is my permanent crown supposed to wiggle?

October 3, 2018
Asked By:kitta3380 in Covington, GA

I have a crown way in the back on the top left side of my mouth. I've had it since July 2017. It started feeling weird recently. I have a little pain sometimes and it feels like something is loose under it when it is wiggled. I had a root canal on the tooth that was there so I'm wondering what could be the cause of this?
