What Is a Dental Crown?

A dental crown is a protective cap for your tooth. It’s custom-made to fit over your natural tooth, restoring its strength, shape, and appearance. Whether your tooth has been damaged by decay, injury, or wear, a dental crown can act as a shield to protect it from further harm while improving its functionality.

Our dental crowns are crafted to blend in with your natural smile, so you don’t have to compromise on appearance.

Why Might You Need a Dental Crown?

There are many situations where a crown could be the ideal solution. You might benefit from a dental crown if you experience any of the following:

A cracked, chipped, or weakened tooth
A tooth that has undergone a root canal
A decayed tooth requiring a large filling
Discolouration or misshapen teeth (for cosmetic purposes)

Our team will work closely with you to determine if a dental crown procedure is the right option for your dental restoration needs, or if you might benefit more from a dental implant, bridge, dentures, or another restoration.

What Happens During the Dental Crown Procedure?

The dental crown procedure involves a few steps, though some details vary based on your particular needs.

Here’s what you can generally expect:

Initial assessment: First, we’ll examine the affected tooth and take imaging to assess its condition. We’ll also discuss your options and explain the process thoroughly.
Preparation: Our team will gently reshape your tooth to prepare it for the crown, ensuring a secure and natural fit.
Impressions or scans: We’ll take precise impressions or digital scans of your tooth, which are used to create your custom crown.
Temporary crown (if needed): While your permanent crown is being created, we can provide a temporary crown to protect your tooth in the meantime.
Placement: Once your permanent crown is ready, it will be carefully placed and adjusted to provide the right fit. We’ll finish by securely bonding it in place.
