Why do I have pain when I bite into food with a fixed upper frontal 6 point bridge?

Thank you for your inquiry. We're sorry to hear about your discomfort. This is a great question. Overall, you should not be experiencing discomfort when you bite, but your teeth/gums may need more time to heal. Although you should be able to bite into food with your new restorations, it's not recommended since you don't want to risk fracturing it. Your dentist will be able to tell if you have a high occlusion and adjust your bite accordingly, as this is likely what your discomfort is coming from. In addition, continue to monitor if you have hot/cold sensitivity since this could mean that you need a root canal in the future, which is a risk when treating restorations. We hope this helps and wish you all the best!

Hi, thanks for write... No, that's not correct, he needs to try to fix that, you paid for that, he needs to everyone the teeth support the bridge and your occlusion. Good luck 

It sounds like the bridge needs to be remade if you're no longer able to bite through food. At best it just needs an adjustment to 'sharpen' the edge so you don't have to tear off food... that's silly! There's also better material that does not have metal which can show a dark edge over time. Sincerely,Dr. Reiser
