Im 22 years old now. When I ate non veg stuff its getting stuck between cap and teeth and also between some teeth. I went to dentist recently for crowns becoz that 2 teeth were slightly broken. This food sticking problem starts from that day on which the side 2 crowns placed. Is there solution for this problem? Is he treat me something wrong?

Hello Lybrate user, if the food is getting stuck in between anormal teeth and the crown then the crowns are defective. Crowns should be in contact with the adjacent teeth in such a way that no food can enter in between. Visit your dentist and show him the condition. Also you can floss or use proxa brush to remove the food particles. Hope this helps.

Hi lybrate-user if the food is getting stuck between the cap and the tooth on which the cap is placed then the cap is defective. If between cap and tge adjacent tooth then the cap is ok. You need to use interdental brush or dental floss to keep the area clean.

It is important you get your crowns checked. The problem arises due to food accumulating in the gums between the crown. Sometimes, only deep cleaning helps. You may need to make new crowns or may be join the two crowns for preventing food impaction.
