Gap between crown and gums, exposing my real tooth - is this normal? (photos)
BettysalazarDec 27, 2023
My front tooth needed a crown and after the procedure I noticed the gap between the crown and my gums and I can see the back of my real tooth. Is this normal? The front of the tooth looks perfectly normal but will the back gap cause any hygienic complications? I also feel a bit of my bottom tooth touch the top crown when I chew but not when I bite, should I get this shaved down?
