Call ur dentist: Hard to say why it is hurting you or the condition of the tooth, but it's best to let the person who is treating you diagnose the cause and determine the care.

Call doctor: It could be a high temporary crown or preparation is deep or it could be trauma after preparing. Go see your doctor to determine cause of pain.

Toothache: Let your dentist know the tooth is aching. The nerve could be having problem or the temporary crown is leaking causing sensitivity.

Call Dentist: Pain may be transient and may improve over time. OTC pain killers may help. If tooth fractured or abscessed your Dentist will need to see you. If temporary is even slightly over contoured, a simple adjustment will provide immediate relief. Please call your Dentist for help.
