Temporary crown issues

I had a temporary crown placed 2 days agos. I have not had much pain until now but my bite seems a little off sometimes. I feel the side with the crown touch first but not all the time. Today there was a little blood from the crown and I can barely chew on that side now. I also have a sore underneath my tongue where the cement has rubbed against it and my other teeth are starting to get sore. I have 3 weeks before my permanent crown is placed. Should I wait until then or try and see my dentist?

It wouldn't hurt to contact your dentist and see what s/he say.

I never had blood with a temp crown  but my tongue is usually sore while it's on.

Hi,
It would probably be a good thing to get back to your dentist BEFORE the permanent crowns are made as they are probably going to be made exactly like your temps.  If the temps are not fitting properly, your perms may not either.

Go back and have your problems addressed now so your perms don't give you problems later.

GOOD LUCK.
Best to you,
Gellia
