Dental Crowns at Midtown Toronto
A cracked, worn or weakened tooth may need more protection than a filling can provide. At Art of Smile Dentistry at Yonge & Eglinton, we create custom dental crowns to restore the tooth’s shape, strength and function.
A crown, sometimes called a cap, covers the visible part of the tooth. It may be recommended for a heavily filled tooth, a cracked tooth, or a tooth that needs protection after root canal treatment. Crowns can also improve the appearance of a damaged or misshapen tooth.
Our dentists use digital scans to plan a natural-looking crown that fits comfortably with your bite. We’ll assess your tooth and explain whether a crown is the right option before treatment begins.
Treatment Options
When Might You Need a Dental Crown?
To Restore a Damaged Tooth
A crown can help protect a tooth that has a large filling, significant wear or a crack. It may also be recommended after root canal treatment when the remaining tooth needs added protection.
To Improve a Tooth’s Appearance
A crown can change the shape or colour of a tooth while restoring its function. Your dentist will assess whether a crown or a more conservative option is appropriate.
Our Step-by-Step Crown Process
Your crown treatment is completed in a few simple steps, with a focus on comfort, precision and a natural-looking result.
Appointment 1: Preparation, Digital Scan & Temporary Crown
The tooth is carefully prepared, then digitally scanned for an accurate fit. A temporary crown is placed to protect the tooth while your final crown is made.
Your Crown Is Custom Made
Your crown is created to match the shape, shade and bite of your natural teeth. This typically takes about 1–2 weeks.
Appointment 2: Permanent Crown Placement
We check the fit, bite and appearance of your crown, make any needed adjustments, and securely place it.
Follow-Up Care
Regular brushing, flossing and dental checkups help keep your crown and surrounding teeth healthy.
