Hi there!

I am in the process of getting a crown on 25, and wanted to clarify something my dentist said.

He said he will be making a temporary crown after preparing my tooth and taking a scan for the lab. Which is all normal to me.

But then he said a temporary crown from the lab will be sent first, to make sure I like it and it fits perfectly, and if I approve, then they will make the permanent one.

Also he made it sound like of the inclusion wasn't perfect ot would be to my cost for them to remake it.

Is it weird for a lab to make a temporary one first for this reason?

I'm almost 3 weeks out

finished 2 weeks antibiotics

These symptoms started during 2nd week:

Have sinus pressure and headaches on that side

Tenderness in cheek where the lift was especially if I wash my face have to be gentle

Throbs only when I'm active, stops at rest

When do these headaches and pressure stop? My doctor said it's not typical said I should see an ent... He didn't do any additional scans..

ENT can't get me in until the end of july

Anyone else have a similar experience and what happened.
