Hi,
I am not sure what you mean by "my result dramatically get worse." Is there multicollinearity between the time dummies and other predictors? You may want to have a look at this paper:
Phillips, J.A., & Greenberg, D.F. (2007). A comparison of methods for analyzing criminological panel data. Journal of Quantitative Criminology, 24(1), 51-72.
