After root canal treatment, a crown is usually required to reinforce and seal the treated tooth.
At DentiFlow Dentistry in Thornhill, we offer high-quality dental crowns to restore damaged, worn, or weakened teeth. Crowns provide strength, function, and a natural appearance, making them an essential part of many restorative and cosmetic treatments. Whether you need to reinforce a cracked tooth or cover a dental implant, our custom crowns are designed to blend seamlessly with your smile.
A dental crown is a tooth-shaped cap that is placed over a damaged or decayed tooth to restore its shape, strength, and appearance. It covers the entire visible portion of the tooth above the gum line and is cemented permanently into place.
Crowns are commonly used to protect teeth after root canal treatment, support broken or worn teeth, cover large fillings, or restore dental implants.
Crowns can be used on natural teeth, after root canal treatment, or as the final restoration for dental implants.
With proper care, crowns can last 10 to 15 years or longer, offering a durable and functional restoration.
Made from tooth-colored materials like porcelain or ceramic, crowns restore your smile with natural-looking results.
Here’s what you can expect during your crown treatment at DentiFlow—from diagnosis to placement.
