Can't see it: But from what you describe you may have recurrent decay, an open margin, a displaced crown, or a tooth or gum infection. Please return to the Dentist that placed the crown for reevaluation. Don't wait. The longer you wait, the more difficult the problem will be to correct.

Examination: Have the dentist who placed the crown examine it for proper fit.
