Pain in molars: You should not have work done on your front teeth that now makes your back teeth touch "harder" without proper evaluation of your occlusion.. If your front teeth were so far off that now you are traumatizing your molars, then you have a more complicated situation. The work may have created an unbalanced occlusion. Front teeth do protect back teeth, see a trained dentist.
