Your tongue probably won&#8217;t notice anything either. Your bite will.<\/p>\r\n<p>You might feel the crowned tooth touching first when you close your mouth. Chewing can feel uneven. Some people say it feels like pressure of pain especially when they bite down hard.<\/p>\r\n<h3>Signs Your Bite Needs Checking<\/h3>\r\n<p>\u2022 The crowned tooth touches before the others, which&#8217;s usually the biggest sign.<\/p>\r\n<p>\u2022 Biting feels uncomfortable on that side. You keep moving your jaw without thinking about it.<\/p>\r\n<p>\u2022 There&#8217;s a pressure when you chew especially if the feeling stays around of going away.<\/p>\r\n<h3>Why Does a Crown End Up High?<\/h3>\r\n<p>Sometimes the crown just needs a little work. Your dentist checks your bite when placing it. Your mouth can feel different once the numbness goes away and you&#8217;re chewing normally.<\/p>\r\n<p>A temporary crown can also feel strange because its meant to be replaced. With a crown the dentist can check the contact points and make a very small change to the biting surface.<\/p>\r\n<h3>When Should You Call Your Dentist?<\/h3>\r\n<p>A little strange feeling after crown placement is normal. Your mouth needs time to get used to having something there.<\/p>\r\n<p>If the pressure from your bite keeps coming back it&#8217;s time to get help. So is pain when you chew, a feeling that the tooth is being pushed into the gum or discomfort that gets worse of better.<\/p>\r\n<h2>Dental Implant Services in Popular Locations<\/h2>\r\n<div class=\"location-grid\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bridgedentalcosmetic.co.uk\/dental-implants-isleworth\"> Dental Implants in Isleworth <\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bridgedentalcosmetic.co.uk\/dental-implants-brentford\"> Dental Implants in Brentford <\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bridgedentalcosmetic.co.uk\/dental-implants-ealing\"> Dental Implants in Ealing <\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bridgedentalcosmetic.co.uk\/dental-implants-feltham\"> Dental Implants in Feltham <\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bridgedentalcosmetic.co.uk\/dental-implants-hounslow\"> Dental Implants in Hounslow <\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bridgedentalcosmetic.co.uk\/dental-implants-richmond\"> Dental Implants in Richmond <\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bridgedentalcosmetic.co.uk\/dental-implants-southall\"> Dental Implants in Southall <\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bridgedentalcosmetic.co.uk\/dental-implants-twickenham\"> Dental Implants in Twickenham <\/a><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What Does a High Crown Feel Like?
