YOUR CHOICE FOR TOOTH CROWNS IN NE CALGARY, AB

What is a Dental Crown?

Crowns are restorations that fully cover teeth that are compromised, damaged, or at risk for failing. Crowns act as a “helmet” that goes over the tooth, and unlike fillings, they address biting force down the center to prevent the fracturing of teeth. When a tooth’s longevity is not increased by placing a new filling on it, it is time to consider a crown. This will depend on many factors such as remaining tooth structure, a patient’s bite force, and the patient’s aesthetic needs.

NE Calgary Dental Crowns are recommended when:
