The Role of Dental Crowns in Restoring Teeth

Crowns restore teeth that have been broken or are at high risk of breaking. They are typically made from porcelain or noble alloys and are needed when a significant portion of the tooth is missing. A crown can also anchor a dental bridge to replace missing teeth.

Protect

Covers the entire visible tooth to shield it from fractures and further damage.

Strengthen

Restores the strength you need to bite and chew comfortably.

Beautify

Shade-matched to your neighbouring teeth for a natural, all-white smile.

Replace

Supports bridges and can fill the space left after a tooth extraction.

When Might a Dental Crown Be Recommended?

Every tooth is different, and your dentist will examine yours before recommending treatment. Crowns are most often suggested when a tooth needs more support than a filling can provide.

If the damage is smaller, a tooth-coloured filling may be enough. If the concern is mainly cosmetic, dental veneers or dental bonding may be options to discuss at your consultation.

Common Reasons for a Crown

✓ A previous filling has broken or fractured
✓ Too much of the tooth has been lost to decay
✓ Extensive damage from decay or breakage
✓ Tooth sensitivity
✓ Cosmetic concerns such as discolouration
✓ Protection after root canal therapy
✓ Fractured or chipped surfaces

The Process of Getting a Dental Crown

Getting a crown typically takes two visits, beginning with a consultation with one of our dentists:

Step 1

Consultation & Preparation

Your dentist examines the tooth, then prepares the tooth structure so the crown will fit securely.

Step 2

Impression

An impression of the prepared tooth is taken and sent to a dental laboratory to fabricate your custom crown.

Step 3

Temporary Crown

A temporary crown protects the tooth while your permanent crown is being made.

Step 4

Fitting & Cementing

At your next visit, the crown is tried in to confirm a good fit, then cemented in place.

When the procedure is finished, the crown blends seamlessly with your teeth and returns the strength you need for comfortable oral function.

Frequently Asked Questions

A dental crown may be needed when a tooth is broken, cracked, badly decayed, or at high risk of breaking. Crowns are often recommended when a previous filling has broken, too much tooth structure has been lost, there is extensive damage from decay or breakage, a tooth is sensitive, a tooth needs cosmetic improvement for discolouration, or protection is needed after root canal therapy.

Crowns are designed to be a durable, long-term restoration. How long yours lasts depends on the material used, your oral hygiene, and how much wear the crown is exposed to. Your dentist can give you a more specific estimate during your consultation.

A filling repairs a smaller area of damage inside a tooth, while a crown covers the whole tooth to protect it when a significant portion is missing or the tooth is weakened. Crowns are typically needed when a large amount of tooth has been lost or when a previous filling has broken or fractured.

A crown typically takes two visits. At the first, your dentist prepares the tooth, takes an impression, and places a temporary crown. At the second, the permanent crown is tried in to confirm the fit and then cemented in place.
