You thought your dental problem was solved when you got your tooth crown. Unfortunately, the pain has resurfaced and won’t go away. There are several reasons for tooth crown pain, such as decay under the crown, inflamed gums, wear over time, or improper fit. If a crown continues to hurt, it won’t get better, and it’s something you shouldn’t ignore. An emergency visit to a Cincinnati family dentist at Beckham Square Family Dental will reveal the underlying issue. One of our local dentists will recommend the best remedy to fix your crown and eliminate the pain and discomfort. While waiting to get to the dentist, try an over-the-counter pain reliever or rinse with warm salt water. To prevent future pain around your dental crown, be sure to get regular dental checkups when your dentist can evaluate or detect problems before they cause discomfort.
