[QUOTE=Bryanna;1060015]Hi Silky,

Sometimes composite material can be added to the porcelain on a crown but it usually doesn't stay on too long especially if it is placed on the cusp. Has your dentist tried reducing the cusp (with a drill) on the porcelain?

Hi Bryanna,

The dentist didn't try reducing the cusp. He said he could try to smooth out the cusp, but wouldn't that make the space bigger, and then possibly irritate the tongue more. Would you try smoothing first,or try to reshape the crown in some way?

Thanks. Carol
