I would call your dentist's office and explain your concerns. I feel certain that they will want to get you into the office and evaluate the crowns. If they are leaking, they will likely replace them with new ones. Good luck.
If you feel that the recently crowned teeth are creating issues for you, should return to your dentist in order for him to examine the new crowns. He may elect to take an xray to verify that the crowns area sealed well and that you don't have any problems with leakage of any fluids/bacteria, etc.
It is unlikely, if the crowns were place properly, that they would get fluid under them. If not place properly this is possible and not a good situation. I would suggest you talk to the dentist and let them know of your concerns. They will be able to evaluate the situation and let you know what needs to be done, if anything. Good luck!
Just because you have a crown, doesn't mean that the tooth has to be sensitive, especially if the preparation of the tooth for the crown was conservative, and did not approach the pulp. Each tooth has different anatomy. Also, the pulp responds differently based on the number of times the tooth...
I would not have an issue using a Zirconium abutment in this situation. The restorative doctor needs to be sure that the crown does not take a great deal of occlusal forces when you close. That will drastically reduce the risk of fracture and improve the aesthetics...
The fees you presented seem more than fair. If this is a stretch for your budget you might consider trying to become a patient at the dental school in Los Angeles. Prices are reduced and students will do your treatment. Hope this helps.
