Got a permanent crown on right front tooth because it was discolored. Crown now doesn’t look too bad but looks off? Should I leave it alone or redone/ altered? I don’t have the straightest teeth, but it looks too big/ long/ square. Also looks too opaque compared to my more translucent teeth. Dr says it looks as good as it can get and has to be this thick in order to cover my discolored tooth. Who is right?

Answer: My crown doesn't look too bad, but it looks off. What should I do?
Creating a suction movement with your tongue is not likely to harm the crowns in any way. When the crowns were placed, they were permanently bonded with cement.
I am glad you like the fit of your new crowns! That is great. It sounds like you are getting adjusted to having these crowns in...
Maybe can be modified to correct the shape of the crown, in fact it is much bigger and can not be bigger or be higher when biting, being higher than other teeth can even fracture a tooth.
