My crown is too big and has already been cemented on

May 17, 2016
Asked By:fjs65 in Schaumburg, IL

I had a crown put on the very last tooth on the bottom left, and it scrapes against my top left back upper tooth when I move it from side to side, and certain chewing motions. It seems like it might be too big. She adjusted a few times before cementing on, and it seemed to be ok, but now it seems like it might be a problem. It doesn't hurt and is not uncomfortable, but I feel like it might be problematic in the future and chip my upper tooth. Can She remove it and make it smaller?
