What Causes Pain While Eating After Fitted With Bridge/cap?

After treatment I have got fitted bridge/cap on my 2 teeth. While eating I feel pain. Dentist says wait and try for 8-10 days. As per him all procedure done is fine. To avoid pain while eating I take one oxalgin and when I feel
No pain I eat from that side. One tablet is sufficient for 24 hours. On eating now I don't feel pain. Is this method right for 8-10 days to check after 8-10 days whether all procedure done is ok?

Dentist 's  Response
Usually after a crown/bridge work this should not happen . Slight sensitivity does occur on a vital tooth prior to crown fitting. You should have an x ray of the concerned tooth but after getting your crown/bridge removed.( it should have been done by your dentist prior to crown fitting if anticipated).having medicines is okay .go and see a nearby dental surgeon if problem persists.best of luck.
