Dental Crowns

Why Choose a Dental Crown?

At Rosedale Dental in Thornhill, we understand the importance of a healthy, functional, and confident smile. A dental crown, often referred to as a "cap," is a custom-made restoration that covers a damaged tooth entirely from the gum line up. It restores the tooth’s shape, size, strength, and appearance.

When is a Dental Crown Needed?

• Significant Decay: When a tooth is too damaged by decay for a filling.
• Large Fillings: To support a tooth weakened by a large filling.
• Root Canal Treatment: To protect a brittle tooth after root canal therapy.
• Cracked or Fractured Teeth: To prevent further damage.
• Severely Worn Teeth: Due to grinding or wear.
• Misshapen or Discolored Teeth: For cosmetic improvements.
• Dental Implants: As a tooth-like covering.
• Supporting a Dental Bridge: To anchor a bridge replacing missing teeth.

What are Dental Crowns Made From?

• All-Ceramic or All-Porcelain: Natural appearance, ideal for front teeth.
• Porcelain-Fused-to-Metal: Strength of metal with porcelain aesthetics.
• Metal Alloys: Gold or noble alloys for high durability, often used on back teeth.
