When you chew on things your teeth are always pushed on equally. Without a lower tooth putting as much pressure on it, the tooth will start to slowly move down. I don't think I'm making much sense here, so I hope you understand what I just said! Just wanted you to know. I'm sorry you are having so much pain. I have had *many* crown$, because of poor tooth enamel from medications and fevers from being so ill as a child. My first crowns were at 16 or so. I fully understand. I have been there, and I wish I could do something for you! (((HUGS))) Cristy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
