Hello,
Thanks for consulting HCM,
Read your query crown fitted on healthy teeth cause senstivity and pain dont be worried so much I will suggest you to consult with your dentist and go for root canal treatment of teeth and after then go for crown .
Inmeantime do warm saline rinses 2 -3 times a day and for pain you can take analgesic like paintol or paracetamol.
Hope this will help you.

Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The pain after fitting the crowns can be because of the high points in the crowns(excessive material on the chewing surface), which results in abnormal forces over the teeth resulting in pain.
The other possible cause can be excessive tooth cutting which is involving or approximating pulp can cause pulpitis and result in pain. So consult your protshodontist and get it evaluated.
If it just a high point, get it reduced by reducing the crown structure.
If it is because of the pulpitis, then it has to be restored with RCT and crown has to be repeated. Mean while you can take any analgesic for the pain.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
