Dentist Said Crowns Just FEEL Loose, But Really Aren't?

Question

Thanks to all. Adding to question. 6 new front crowns permanently cemented in 4 wks ago. 1st week, feel loose, all moving to left and dropping, new fillings fell out, 2 front crowns fell out sipping water in middle of doc presentation. Dentist said, crowns not loose, just feels like it, however crowns fell out cause loose, color not white as temps cause temps are acrylic. Is this true? Went to cosmetic d- got resident d. Invisalign suggested while waiting on crowns that fell out.. Is that normal?

A bit confusing but all this does not sound right. Crowns can occasionaly fall out but for several new ones to fall out or feel loose? Plus fillings falling out? Invisalign is best done prior to crowns.

	Sounds like they don't know whats going on. Get another opinion.

	Good luck

Sometimes you can be highly aware to very fine movement of the teeth. There is a misconception that teeth don't move. In reality they can SLIGHTLY move.

	If your teeth are moving substantially, then that is a completely different topic.

	I/m sorry but your questions are a little unclear, so it's hard to answer for you exactly what is happening.

If you could submit some photos and be a little more clear about what your question is, then I could try to answer your question. I'm still not clear about what your problem is.
