Common Questions and Answers about Jaw pain after temporary crown

t have a blood clot where my tooth was removed so they treated it like Dry socket and put packing in it and I was told that maybe I couldnt distinguish where the pain was actually located even though I was convinced it was due to the temporary crown. But today my top jaw is still hurting and im feeling pain at the bottom of my tooth where the crown is placed. Am I crazy or could there seriously be something wrong with my temporary crown or tooth under it?
I had a temporary crown placed after my first root canal. I was under full sedation. My jaw/gum soreness is gone but I cannot apply even a tiny but of pressure on the temp without a severe, shooting pain. It's been 10 days since the procedure. Isn't the root dead? It seems to be most sensitive between the temporary crown and the tooth just behind it. Is it possible the root to the tooth behind the root canal is damaged?
Remove the temporary crowns. Usually your pain will diasappear shortly after removal of temporary crown. If these teeth are vital, you may experience sensitivity to cold stimulus. However, it's generally tolorable. Then, go back to your dentist to adjust the bite until you feel perfectly comfortable with the temporary crowns. If temporary crown is not successful, the final crown is not likely to work well.
I had a huge filling taken out of my tooth and never felt any pain. Core crown build up around the tooth and a temp put on, never had any pain. A month later he puts the permanent crown on, I feel drastic pain. If the dentist puts the crown on, make sure he does you occlusal right. I never knew if an occlusal was not done right, it could cause alot of things in your facial area to go wrong. Including TMJ.
good luck. ps make sure you get a good dentist or expert to do any work.
I had a temporary crown fitted three weeks ago. I had a lot of pain and went back to the dentist who adjusted the bite - the pain continued - went back to the dentist who removed the temporary crown to ensure no infection - no evidence of infection but I was given antibiotics as a precaution. I had the permanent crown fitted with temporary cement as there was still a lot of pain.
There was a cavity that the dentist was going to try to just fill but he said it would be better to go with a crown because I would probably need one in a couple of years anyway. The temporary crown was perfect. No pain whatsoever. The perm. crown was ok for about a week. Then it started to hurt when I would chew on that side. There was pain in the tooth and in the jaw area. I went back to the dentist and he said my bite was off and filed it down. It still hurt.
A week ago today I had a temporary crown put on lower right molar while a permanent crown is being made. When anesthegia wore off I was left in chronic extreme pain that extends from the middle of my lip and jaw to my ear and up into my eye socket. The pain is extreme but centered on the lower row of teeth where the crown was put on. Yesterday the dentist checked everything, did a second xray, and found nothing.
Allergies to that material is certainly a thought, although I had another crown on the other side done after that. Also, I was having pain around the two teeth on the lower jaw, where the temporary cap was hitting. The dentist ground on the lower teeth to level out the bite, and I am wondering why the pain, why he chose to work on the lower ones instead of fixing the temporary one above, and why there was so much pain just from a wrong bite.

One of these two teeth had a root canal this fall and had 4 roots. I have had such severe throbbing pain in my upper jaw it is unbearable. The pain feels like it's between the teeth, but shoots to my temple, around my eye, and below my ear. I went back to my dentist this past week, and he removed one of the temporary crowns (the one that had the root canal), cleaned/dug around it, and replaced the temporary crown. He took an x-ray and said things looked ok.
My top back molar broke. My dentist drilled it for a crown and put a temporary crown on it. About two days later I developed a pain in both my upper and lower jaws..mind you..this tooth does not hurt it just hurts all around it. Alleve takes the pain away. Went back two weeks later to get the permanent put on and now he won't put it on until I see an endodontist to make sure I don't need a root canal. Really..
removed the cracked portion, placed a pin in and rebuilt up the tooth. The dental hygeinest made my temporary crown. I went home, and when the numbing wore off, I was in severe pain. not just my tooth. but also my whole face and jaw. I called the dr. and was told it was normal. after several days pain STILL did not go away. I went back in and the dental hygeninst drilled the tooth so it didn't hit the upper teeth.
Based on the information provided, it appears that you develop thermal sensitivity after a new restoration, which is a temporary or final crown. In dentistry, we tend to use the term " final", instead of permanent, because nothing is permanent other than tax and death. The most common culprit of thermal sensitivity after new restoration is occlusal interference, if there is no carious lesion or periodontal pathology present.
I have a permanent crown on a lower back molar that was placed after a root canal in Nov. '06... This crown has never felt like it fits properly... I can chew on it, but I get a little pressure feeling and itch around the gum line afterwards... Sometimes if feels like a burning sensation... Especially after I floss right between the crown and other molar... I also would get a shooting pulsating feeling under the crown...
I am getting a bridge made for my bottom left side and had my mouth open for a total of 5 hours in 1 day. The pain in my jaw was severe, and my ear feels like there is something in it. There is also a noise when I chew, or open my mouth. I can't open my mouth very big yet, but it is improving. There is no clicking sound when I open and close my mouth . It is more of a whooshing sound. I have a temporary bridge in and although it is not great the bite is OK. My Dr.
My jaw pain is on left side only - same side as tooth. My crown was placed on tooth with temporary cement and left like that for months - but the off and on discomfort remained. It is NOT same pain I experienced when it was cracked - - it is on the sides only and almost feels like it is loose - yet dentists have examined it and say it is not loose. Also - most of the time when the tooth hurts, my jaw (on left only) hurts - the pain goes back to from of ear area.
I began experiencing prolonged severe intermittent pain in upper and lower jaw especially in opposing tooth. Also pain in cheek, and ear. Ligaments behind teeth were inflamed and painful. On Sunday I could no longer bear the pain. I called my Dentist, he called immediately called me back, called in prescriptions for an antibiotic and pain medication, instructed me to call office on Monday and would work me in on Monday or Tuesday.
I am experiencing a very similiar situation. A permanent crown replaced a temporary crown. I only experienced pain while chewing on the temporary crown which I expected because of the grinding that was done to the tooth (molar). Anyway, three weeks went by and the permanent crown was put on. I told the Dentist about how the temporary crown partially was lefted while I accidently was chewing gum, which really hurt. I gargled with hydrogen proxide and felt okay.

While wearing the temporary, I noticed pain, both in the tooth and jaw. Sometimes, the jaw pain was worse than the tooth pain.
Three weeks later, I got the permanent put on. While fitting it, my remaining tooth was very sensitive to the many attempts. He said "that's good, it means it's alive".
After the permanent was put on, I had bite issues for a week or so, he adjusted, feels better now.
I am left with severe pain...most sensitive under my left cheek bone.
