Tooth Sensitivity After Permanent Crown Placement, Also Affecting Non-Crowned Teeth?

Hi:It’s best to go back to your dentist to check the bite on the crown tooth as a first meausure.  Normally bite issues only increase sensitivity over time.Best,Dr. Maddahi

First consider asking the doctor to check and verify that you bite is not high in both tap-tap-tap position and when you move your teeth to extreme side to side and forward positons. Sometimes there are interferences in bite, which can start causing sensetivity. It happened to me, as a patient! It lasted for 2 weeks untill I had a bite adjusted. Try that. If this does not work, consider changing a crown and a possibly a root canal therapy.

It is possible that the filling under the crown may have disturbed the nerve and the nerve is reacting to it. This usually settles down after a few days. If not, it can mean that a root canal may be needed. If the pain increases when you are biting down on it then the crown may need a bite adjustment which should not take long to fix at your dentist.
