Is my permanent crown supposed to wiggle?

Question

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?

Hello. The crown can`t move, so you should go to the your doctor and have a  consultation to confirm that everything is good.

Amber Garcia, DDS · Answer

Crowns should not wiggle. If you feel that it is moving, go see your dentist. You could have a cavity under the crown or the filling under the crown could have come loose. Either way, it's something that needs to be addressed.
