Is it possible to put too much glue in a crown when placing it on a tooth? Can it harden and make the crown 'tall'?

Asked By:TrangPak in Louisville, KY

I just got my crown replaced today, it's my second-to-last molar on my left side. I know, know, too early to worry?... But, my teeth no longer touch when I bite down, like they used to. It's like the crown is 'bigger/taller' and won't allow me to bite down. The fit is correct, we tried multiple crowns, but I don't see why it's like this. Is it just me, am I worrying about nothing? Should I wait a few more days/a week? I don't know what to do...
