I recently (4 mos) had a crown done on a tooth (#7 first tooth to MY right of my front teeth). I recently noticed that I can "feel" the crown--I don't know how to describe it but I can just tell its there. When I push my tongue against it, it feels like its moving. When I put my finger on it and bite down, I clearly feel the tooth underneath it (which goes behind it, top overbites bottom) cause the crown to push out a bit and lift. If I try to wiggle the tooth I feel nothing. Is this normal?
