I went to my dentist to try-in my new monolithic Zirconia crown (Katana STML) and the bite seems ok to me, and the dentist says he's pleased with it.
But it was hard for me to determine if it felt 100% right as there was some pressure up in the gum part, which distracted me.
So the dentist recommended to cement the Zirconia temporarily in order for me to assess how I felt over a few days.
My questions are;
1. Is an assessment stage normally suggested/recommended? Is there any reason to avoid doing that?
2. Would temporary cement ruin/harm my Zirconia crown in any way?
3. How should the crown be cleaned from the temporary cement - can it be done chairside or should it be sent back to the lab for sandblasting, etc?
All opinions would be very much appreciated.
TIA
