I had 3 crowns installed 13 months ago, and they hurt anytime something cold touches them. I asked my dentist, but he didn't really have an answer for me. Does anyone else have this problem?
Why are my dental crowns sensitive to cold?
There are lots of causes for the sensitivity. The crown procedure is very damaging to the tooth (and the primary reason I don't do them). The damage causes swelling in the nerve causing cold sensitivity. In that the pain is ongoing, it tells me that it may have other factors like type of glue, poor fit, or something of that nature.
3% of all teeth getting crowns will need a root canal in the first year, that rises to 20% at 10 years and 60% by 20 years. Those aren't great stats. I find dentists seldom discuss to probable need for a root canal at some point in time on any tooth requiring a crown.
Reply:you have some infection under the crowns you need to gargle with hot water and salt to kill it and do that 3 times a day
