New crown feels clunky and uncomfortable, day three post fitting. Is this normal and will it improve?

Prosthodontist placed the crown, made some adjustments, placed it again, checked with occlusive paper, more adjustments and polished it.

Then he said there was contact on all other teeth so he was going to cement it, which he did.

It's full gold, upper 2nd molar.

When I bite down now, it's actually noisy, like clunking sound.

I was hoping he would take it out of occlusion but he refused, stating it was over erupt if he did so.

I'm currently at the end of day 2 post fitting.

Will the bite naturally begin to feel more comfortable after another week or two?

It almost feels a little high at the moment or something.
