Could crown lengthening of upper back premolar & molar cause referred ear pain? also how long can crown lengthening pain last? i was not prescribed antibiotics only peridex which scares me slightly. thanks!

Possibly: Even though a minor surgery, pain from an oral procedure can be referred to other areas of the head and neck. You most likely did not have an infection when the dentist did the procedure so no need for antibiotics. Your questions are best answered by the dentist who treated you.
