Dental crowns
A crown is a custom-made cap that covers a tooth to restore its strength, shape, and overall function. It’s often recommended when a tooth has a large fracture, a deep filling, significant wear, or has been treated with root canal therapy. Crowns are designed to blend naturally with your surrounding teeth and help protect the tooth long term.
Why a crown might be needed
- A tooth with a large fracture or weakened structure
- After root canal therapy
- Significant wear from clenching or grinding
- Extensive or recurrent decay
- To restore the shape and appearance of a tooth
What to expect
- A digital scan to capture a precise 3D model of your tooth
- A temporary crown to protect the tooth while your final crown is made
- A secure, custom fit when the permanent crown is placed and adjusted
- A natural appearance designed to match the shade and contours of your smile
