[|Human|] Hello,I am looking for a solution to my severe jaw and temple pain. I recently got a crown put in on my right lower molar, it has been nearly two weeks and Im still experiencing severe jaw pain. Im having trouble opening my mouth to eat and Im taking 800 mg ibuprofen for the pain but as soon as it wears off, the pain is unbearable. Ay suggestions?
[|AI|]  Hello there, Thanks for writing your query, Pain in the jaw and temple area post crown placement on the tooth indicates problem with the crown coverage. If the prosthetic crown is not in CAUSAL HARMONY with the jaw it leads to pain and discomfort during chewing and clenching. The crown needs to be evaluated for any high points and sharp margins that interfere with the normal occlusion. Consult a dentist and get the crown examined, SELECTIVE GRINDING of the crown will help in resolving the problem. I hope this helps, take care.
