Does putting a dental crown hurt?
You have gone through the worst of it. The prep work and the root canal and wearing that temporary crown is where you experience the most discomfort. As long as your crown is set correctly, you should not have much pain or discomfort. When they ask you to bite down to test the fit, make sure you are comfortable with the fit b/c the crown will permanently set in that position.
Reply:Having a crown placed doesn't hurt. Most dentist don't use anesthesia to place a crown if a root canal has been performed. It is possible that the infection could come back if the root canal didn't treat all canal. Sometimes people have hidden/ extra canals that might not be treated during a root canal. If problems come back they will recommend a specialist to check the root canal. Don't worry about the crown though.
Reply:make sure they put a post and a crown. without the post, the tooth will basically have no support. its like i tree with no roots. the crown isnt going to hurt, the procedure is kind of long. just make sure they match your teeth color so it doesnt stand out and make sure you really like it when they cement it on. dont sign anything saying you like it if its ugly. you can make them send it back and have it re-made. crowns only cost us about 60 $. we charge patients around 800$!!! its crazy, but just make sure you like it!! it wont hurt though
Reply:No, putting on a crown doesn't' hurt. I've had 2 done in one sitting. They just remove the temps you have on now, check to see if the permanents fix and adjust the bite if necessary. Then place it on with glue. Zero pain and I needed no shots. Good luck!
