Dental Crowns in Pitt Meadows: Restoring Strength and Aesthetics

 

What Are Dental Crowns?

A dental crown is a tooth-shaped cap that restores strength, function, and appearance. Crowns are designed to cover and protect damaged teeth while blending naturally with your smile. At our Pitt Meadows clinic, crowns are available in several materials to suit your needs:

• Zirconium: Extremely strong and durable

• Ceramic or porcelain: Highly aesthetic, ideal for visible teeth

• Gold: Less common, but long-lasting and biocompatible

 

When Is a Crown Recommended?

 

A dental crown may be the best solution in the following situations:

• Protecting a weak tooth, such as after a root canal, from breaking

• Restoring a broken or severely worn-down tooth

• Covering and supporting a tooth with a large filling when little structure remains

• Improving cosmetic appearance, including tooth shape and color

​

Digital Impressions for Better Comfort

Our Pitt Meadows clinic uses a state-of-the-art digital scanner to create highly accurate impressions for crown fabrication. Research shows crowns made from digital scans are as accurate—or more accurate—than those created with traditional impression materials.

​

Benefits of digital impressions:

• Enhanced accuracy and precision

• Faster turnaround for your crown

• More comfortable experience, especially for patients with a strong gag reflex

​

Why Choose Modern Dental Crowns?

• Protect and strengthen weakened teeth

• Restore natural function and bite

• Blend seamlessly with your existing smile

• Provide long-lasting durability

Caring for Your Crown

With regular brushing, flossing, and routine dental checkups, crowns can last many years. Avoid biting hard objects and schedule follow-ups to ensure your crown remains secure and functional.
