Crowns are whole tooth restorations that completely surround damaged teeth or dental implants.

Many people have crowns these days. Getting a crown fitted can significantly improve the appearance of your teeth. They help enhance your smile, while also protecting and strengthening a damaged tooth.

What are crowns?


Crowns can be used to improve your smile by changing the shape and colour of your existing teeth and also in cases to help strengthen a weakened tooth which may be heavily restored due to caries or trauma.  Crowns are most commonly made from highly strengthen porcelain and also other materials such as Gold or hardened plastic.

Between the stages of preparing a tooth for a crown and placement of the final crown, a temporary crown is cemented onto your tooth to protect it.

For treatment with a crown, your dentist will usually match the existing colour of your teeth with a porcelain tooth. Sometimes people may choose a lighter colour for cosmetic reasons. For back teeth, you may choose a number of materials ranging from porcelain and gold based on the strength, durability and cosmetic goals and needs.

Crowns offer many benefits including rebuilding and strengthening weak or broken teeth. They can also help protect your teeth after root canal treatment and can also help improve your overall oral health.

Have questions?

How much do crowns cost?

The cost of a crown can vary, depending on which type of crown is placed and which material is used. Crowns are usually made of porcelain but in some cases, your dentist may recommend an alternative material such as a gold crown because of its strength and durability. Your dentist will be able to give you an estimate at the consultation appointment once they have examined your teeth.
