Pain when Pressing on Crown After Loading of Dental Implant Crown?

Beekie
I had a 2nd implant done on tooth 8. went through a bone graft waited 4 months then implant placement and waited another 8 months. All seemed well - x-rays looked good. Abutment torqued ok and no movement according to the dentist. as soon as the dentist put a temp crown on I experienced some pain in the tooth with pressure. Neither my dentist of oral surgeon seem to know what is wrong. Had my bite adjusted many times and now the tooth moves slightly. Any ideas on what could be wrong?
