Your question is not clear and without photos it's difficult to provide an answer, but I'll try as best I can. Is the crown longer than the surrounding teeth? Is it shorter? Slanted? If the incisal edge of your new crown is not properly aligned with the surrounding teeth, it's possible that a s...

It's possible that your tooth has become reinfected or possibly fractured. I would recommend seeing your dentist right away for an evaluation. A retreat may be necessary followed by a crown to seal and protect your tooth. Good luck and I hope this helps. Follow me if you have more questions.
