After all, you\u2019re probably enjoying a level of comfort and confidence that you might not have had in years, especially if the tooth that was covered was in really poor condition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, nothing lasts forever, including your dental crown. Eventually, you\u2019re going to have to think about replacing it. Here are some signs that your dental crown has failed, or that it could soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Biting Down Doesn\u2019t Feel Right<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When you first get your dental crown, you may notice that even just holding your mouth in a neutral position feels a little strange. That\u2019s because you\u2019re used to a tooth with severe decay sitting in that position; having something sturdy there might be kind of uncomfortable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over time, holding your mouth in the new position will start to feel good; after all, that\u2019s how you\u2019d be holding your jaw if you had a mouthful of healthy teeth. If you start to notice that your bite feels off again, maybe in the way that it did before, that could be a sign that your dental crown has shifted. If this feeling endures, it\u2019s worth talking to a dentist about it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Your Gums Are Receding<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If your dentist isn\u2019t careful when putting on your crown, it\u2019s possible that your restoration can start to do some damage to the surrounding gums. As a result, your gums may start to recede away from your dental crowns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This could also be caused by advanced gum disease which has begun to attack the gum line. In either case, you should probably let your dentist know that you\u2019re having this problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Your Crown is Old<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Even if you haven\u2019t noticed anything wrong in particular, it\u2019s possible for a crown to just suddenly break or fall out one day after years of wear and tear. It\u2019s much easier\u2014and more comfortable\u2014to replace the crown before that happens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After around five years, you should talk to your dentist about the need to replace your dental crown. In either case, you should be seeing your dentist biannually; this will give them an opportunity to check your restoration for damage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About Our Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At Ocean Oaks Dental Group of Vero Beach, we believe in growing with the times.
