Hi

I had a RCT 2 months ago in May and got the Permanent crown on June 13. Ever since I got my crown I have not been overall well. It was too high and was causing pain and sensations in my jaw/neck. The dentist shaved the tooth above and the PFM crown multiple times. I still get weird burning sensations in the surrounding gums and as of this week starting feel constant nausea. The nausea is what's starting to bother me more. Is this a sign of sensitivity to the PFM or an ill fitted crown? I don't know where to start. I feel like I keep going back to a place that is not listening to me when I say something if wrong. A pic of post RTC and post crown.

Can't say why. RCT looks reasonable as does crown. I could understand if it was initially too high that it might cause issues, and perhaps even though the bite may have been solved, you may have entered into a pain cycle. Nausea is not directly related to high spots or RCTs or crowns. Maybe go elsewhere for 2nd opinion that the bite is fully corrected. If that checks out, then consider your general doctor.

Okay. I will get a second opinion and take it from there. The most odd thing that bothers me most, excuse the typo in the title #31 is molar on the right side, when I'm sleeping on the right side I get a jolting sharp pain that wakes me up out my sleep every time its so odd.
