Additional Information About Dental Crowns in Burnaby?
Dental crowns provide an excellent solution for restoring damaged or weakened teeth. Our practice offers high-quality dental crowns to help you achieve a healthier, more attractive smile. If you have a tooth that is cracked, decayed, or has undergone a root canal, a dental crown can offer the protection and aesthetic enhancement you need.
What is a Dental Crown?
A dental crown, also known as a dental cap, is a custom-made restoration that covers the entire visible portion of a tooth. It is designed to restore the tooth’s shape, size, strength, and appearance. Dental crowns are commonly used to protect a weak tooth, restore a broken tooth, cover a dental implant, or enhance the appearance of a discolored or misshapen tooth.
Dental Crown Procedure
The dental crown procedure at our practice in [city] typically involves the following steps:
- Consultation and Examination: During your initial visit, we will examine your tooth and take X-rays to determine if a dental crown is the best solution.
- Tooth Preparation: The damaged tooth is shaped to make room for the crown. This may involve removing a portion of the tooth or building it up if there is extensive decay.
- Impressions: We take impressions of your prepared tooth and the surrounding teeth to create a precise mold for your custom crown.
- Temporary Crown: A temporary crown is placed to protect your tooth while the permanent crown is being fabricated.
- Permanent Crown Placement: Once your custom crown is ready, we will remove the temporary crown and securely bond the permanent crown to your tooth.
Benefits of Dental Crowns
- Restores Tooth Function: Dental crowns restore the functionality of a damaged tooth, allowing you to chew and speak properly.
- Enhances Appearance: Crowns provide a natural-looking solution that blends seamlessly with your existing teeth.
- Durable and Long-Lasting: With proper care, dental crowns can last many years, providing a reliable and durable restoration.
- Protects Weak Teeth: Crowns protect weakened teeth from further damage, preventing the need for more extensive dental work.
- Versatile Applications: Dental crowns can be used for a variety of dental issues, from cosmetic enhancements to structural repairs.

When do I need a dental crown?
Dental crowns are used to restore teeth that have severe damage or staining that other restorative treatments – like bonding or fillings – can’t effectively treat.
They’re also used to support other treatments like root canal therapy, where they protect your tooth from future infections, and dental implants, where they act as a complete tooth replacement.
If I need a crown, do I also need a root canal?
Dental crowns and root canal therapy often go together, but not always.
If your tooth has an infection but is still strong, you may need root canal therapy but not a dental crown.
Likewise, if your tooth has a crack or a chip but no infection, you may need a dental crown but not root canal therapy.
Can anyone get a dental crown?
Not everyone can, or should, get a dental crown. In cases where damage or staining are mild, alternative treatments like bonding, fillings, or whitening may be a better choice.
The same is true for severe cases: if a tooth is too damaged or infected to be restored by a dental crown, then alternatives like dental implants or bridges are the better options.
How do I take care of a dental crown?
Taking good care of a dental crown is just like taking good care of a natural smile.
As long as you’re diligent about taking care of your teeth by flossing, brushing, rinsing with mouthwash, and coming in for regular checkups, your dental crowns will last for years.
What are dental crowns made of?
Dental crowns are available in many different materials, but – in general – they’re made out of porcelain, metal alloys, or zirconia (a type of ceramic).
Why are there different materials? Because teeth have different needs depending on where they’re located in your mouth. For example, the teeth near the back of your mouth are responsible for a lot of grinding and chewing, so they need to be especially strong and durable.
