I Think my Crown is Wearing Down the Tooth Below It. What Should I Do?

chibivie
1 Yr. ago I had a same day crown done with the cerec machine. I have felt the tooth is high & had it readjusted several times. Every time I have it adjusted I'm told it looks better & then it still bothers me. I go back. They use the paper to test it out & there is always some spot darker than others. There is not much adjusting left to do. The tooth below is showing signs of wear. I don't believe my eating habits involve chewing especially hard on one tooth. It is the only tooth with wear.
