Or maybe you haven\u2019t even thought about replacing your crown and are now starting to wonder when you should contact your dentist. The good news is that you don\u2019t have to think about it too much \u2013 many of the signs of imminent crown failure are not very subtle. Keep reading so you\u2019ll know five of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Your Gumline is Running Away<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s not normal for your teeth to appear longer or for your gums to recede for seemingly no reason. Gum disease is certainly one possible explanation for gums that are M.I.A. However, it\u2019s also possible your crown simply needs an adjustment or to be swapped out with a new one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you don\u2019t have an oral hygiene routine already, you should definitely maintain one with a dental crown. Your crown might attract more bacteria than your natural teeth, making it even more important to keep up with dental maintenance. And if you have the best brushing skills in the world, don\u2019t fall prey to denial. Gum disease occurs for many reasons, one of which is genetics. Always call your dentist if your gums are abnormal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Your Bite Feels Funky<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Your dental crown will definitely need a substitute if your mouth feels strange at rest or when you eat. An uneven oral alignment indicates that for one reason or another, your crown is literally bent out of shape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">There\u2019s Some Dental Discomfort in Your Mouth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You should be on the lookout not only for receding gums but inflamed gums, toothaches, swelling, and overly sensitive teeth. A crown that doesn\u2019t fit quite right or is damaged leaves part of your natural tooth exposed, hence your discomfort. If your pain is severe, call your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.julingtoncreekdentistry.com\/emergency-dentistry.html\">emergency dentist<\/a> to see if you need a same-day appointment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">You Notice Wear, Tear, or Damage<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Is your crown looking a little worse for wear? Are you seeing chips or cracks on its surface? Even if all you notice is some unsightly discoloration, it\u2019s probably best to give it an honorable discharge and let a new dental crown take over.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Your Dental Crown is Approaching Its Retirement Age<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dental crowns are generally crafted with quality, durable materials. However, most substances will break down after so many years of constant impact. Your teeth certainly go through a lot, and so does your crown. Depending on where they\u2019re located and how well they\u2019ve been cared for, dental crowns can last anywhere between 5 \u2013 15 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With such a large range, it\u2019s essential that you don\u2019t miss your biannual dental checkups and cleanings. Your professionally trained dentist can help you monitor your crown during routine visits. They\u2019ll be able to swoop in with a replacement before your veteran crown causes issues!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Author<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><em>With his advanced training in dental restorations, Dr. Jonathan Cohen will fit you with a beautiful, efficient crown &#8211; and keep a sharp eye on it so it doesn\u2019t create problems for your oral health.
