You have just had your crown or bridge cemented. Maybe it can feel a bit strange or unusual, beacuse it’s an “alien” thing in your mouth. Don’t worry about it, soon you’ll get used to with it.
It might be that chewing will be also strange for the first time, but this feeling lasts only until your brain realizes the new situation. By this step your masticatory muscles take over its new positions.
If you want your new inlayed bridge or crown to serve you well for years, you have take the following orders seriously:
- Do not chew ice or very hard objects. Avoid chewing very sticky candy because it can remove restorations.
