You did not include a photo of your teeth, so I'm assuming your teeth are longer and stick out more than your adjacent teeth? If that is the case, orthodontics, either braces or Invisalign could be the first choice in treatments because there are also usually concerns with other teeth as well. If they are just a bit too long, then they can be shortened by drilling some of the enamel off the edge of the teeth (called enameloplasty). That is a relatively inexpensive procedure and most often does not hurt or require any novocain (local anesthetic).
The easiest and least invasive procedure, provided that you are a candidate is enameloplasty or reshaping of the teeth.

From your description, it sounds like there is an open contact on your crown. Since there is a space, food like steak can easily get stuck in that crevice and cause irritation as well as swelling which makes it difficult to chew and function. The dark line indicates the crown having an...
What you describe is called an overhanging margin. This is not acceptable dentistry and should be remade. The shelf created by the misfitting crown is a food and plaque trap which leads directly to decay and disease, bone loss and tooth loss over time. Now is the time to fix that, before it...
The problem here is lack of communication. If you already lost that, there is not much to do. I suggest you get another opinion. Stay with a doctor that communicates even if something its not going right or if there is a technical problem.
