My temporary crowns are uncomfortable! Are the permanent ones going to feel anything like this?

I know they are temporary for a reason, but wow. i cant beleive i have to deal with these for 3 weeks! My lips are so chapped and cut up, the front two look like buck teeth, and i cant even eat anything! They feel like they're going to fall out. Is this normal? I got all 8 front teeth done. Yeah....it hurt. The worst thing is my husband comes home in a week from Iraq and i havent seen him in 7 months. I am afraid i wont even be able to give him a kiss without feeling like theyre going to fall out! Ahhhhhhh. Does anyone know how the permanent ones feel %26amp; look ?

how the crowns fit and look all depend on how well they're made. The crowns are custom made to fit your teeth. Let your dentist know about any discomfort and your concerns about a proper fit. I had a crown that gave me nothing but problems and pain. I had it redone by a different dentist and it feels perfect now.
Reply:Don't worry, your permanent crowns are nothing like the temps. The temps that you are wearing now are made from an acrylic and they tend to get rough on the teeth. Maybe you should go back to your dentist and tell them to polish them a bit more. Also, they are just in there with a temporary cement, and that stuff doesn't hold that well. Sometimes you can get that at a drug store, so you can have some at home if they do fall out. Make sure to let them know if they feel too big they might be able to contour them a little better. When it comes time to put in the permanent ones make sure that you address all of your concerns before they cement them in because after that, theres nothing that they can do.





Good Luck!

Wow. I'm sure you do have some swelling and pain. You should be feeling a lot better by the time your husband gets home. But, all won't be perfect.





The permanent crowns will fit. It will still take a few days to get used to them. Everything will settle down and you'll feel fine and look great. You'll think your new look was worth all the discomfort.
