Dental Crowns

Protect and restore damaged teeth with high-quality dental crowns at Just Dentistry. Often called "caps," crowns are custom-designed to fit over a compromised tooth, providing a durable shield against further decay or fractures. Whether you need to restore a tooth after a root canal or improve your smile's aesthetics, our crowns blend seamlessly with your natural teeth to return both strength and a beautiful, all-white appearance.

The Role of Dental Crowns in Restoring Teeth

Dental crowns, also known as caps, are used to restore teeth that have been broken or are at high risk of breaking. They are typically constructed from noble alloys or porcelain and are needed if a significant portion of the tooth is missing.

When might a Dental Crown be Recommended?

  • A previous filling has broken or fractured
  • Too much of a tooth is lost to decay
  • Extensive damage due to decay or breakage
  • Tooth sensitivity
  • Cosmetic purposes, such as discoloration
  • Protection after root canal therapy
  • Fractured or chipped surfaces.

The Process of Getting a Dental Crown

The process of getting a dental crown begins with a consultation with one of our dentists. During your first visit, they will prepare your tooth structure and take an impression of the prepared tooth. They will then place a temporary crown on the tooth and send the impression to a dental laboratory to fabricate the crown. At your next visit, the dentist will try-in the crown to ensure a good fit and then cement it in place.

When the procedure is finished, the crown will blend seamlessly with your teeth and restore your all-white smile. It will also return the strength that you need for comfortable oral function.

Here at Just Dentistry in London, we offer crowns and bridge services to our patients. If you have missing teeth, please call us at 519-471-0984 and book a consultation with our dentist to discuss your options.

Frequently Asked Questions

A crown is recommended when a tooth is too damaged by decay or fractures to be supported by a standard filling. If a significant portion of the tooth structure is missing, or if the tooth has undergone root canal therapy, a crown provides the necessary “cap” to hold the tooth together and prevent it from breaking under the pressure of chewing.
The process typically takes two visits. During the first, we prepare the tooth and take a precise impression while providing you with a temporary crown for protection. That impression is sent to a specialized lab where your custom crown is fabricated. On your second visit, we remove the temporary cap and permanently cement your final, custom-fitted crown in place.
Absolutely. Modern dental crowns are typically made from porcelain or advanced ceramic materials that mimic the translucency and color of your natural tooth enamel. We carefully match the shade of the crown to your surrounding teeth, ensuring that it blends in perfectly for a seamless, beautiful smile.
With proper care, dental crowns can last many years. You should treat your crown just like a natural tooth by brushing and flossing regularly to prevent decay at the base of the crown. Avoiding extremely hard foods and maintaining your regular professional cleanings at our London office will help ensure your crown remains secure and functional for a long time.
