Dental Crowns

If you have damaged or decayed teeth, your dentist may recommend repairing them with a dental crown. Dental crowns are tooth-shaped caps that are placed on top of the natural teeth, restoring their look and functionality.

What Are Dental Crowns Made From?

Dental crowns are made from a variety of materials, including metal, porcelain, and composite resin. While metal crowns tend to be stronger and more durable, most patients prefer the natural look of porcelain or resin crowns, as the material can be colour-matched to the surrounding teeth.

How to Care for Your Dental Crown

With proper care, your dental crown can last for many years before having to be replaced. Brush and floss your dental crowns in the same way you brush your natural teeth. We also recommend scheduling yearly appointments with your dentist so they can assess your oral health and check on the condition of your crown.
