Need a professional opinion. I think these new crowns look awful. Gray and too short. I sound like I have a lisp when I speak now. Do dentists usually fix this at no additional cost? I had 6-11 all redone.

Greetings ,
From your description, it is Temporomandibular joint dysfunction. It is caused due to the bite alterations done during your full mouth crown rehabilitation procedure.it can be treated Easily
Temp crowns can taste bad from the cement, but they should not cause you to lost your sense of taste. This is a pretty common Covid symptom, so you may want to consider getting a test if you have a fever or any other symptoms.
This could be a few things. Likely it is gingival inflammation from the old crown. Removing and redoing it would eliminate this issue.
Another possibility is the root canal is reinfected. At any rate, make sure you discuss this with your dentist more so the problem can be properly...
