Transform Your Smile Today!
At Zoom Dental Clinic, we understand the importance of restoring both the function and appearance of your teeth. That’s why we offer dental crowns, an effective solution for protecting and strengthening damaged or weakened teeth. Whether you’re dealing with decay, cracks, or cosmetic concerns, dental crowns can provide long-lasting, natural-looking results that enhance your smile and overall oral health.
A dental crown is a custom-made cap that is placed over a damaged or weakened tooth, restoring its shape, size, strength, and appearance. Crowns are used when a tooth is too damaged to be repaired with a simple filling but doesn’t need to be removed. They’re designed to fully encase the visible portion of the tooth, offering protection and improving its function.
We provide crowns made from a variety of materials, including porcelain, ceramic, metal, and zirconia, allowing you to choose the option that best fits your needs.

There are several reasons why we may recommend a dental crown:
Here’s what you can expect when you get a dental crown at Zoom Dental Clinic in Burnaby
During your first visit, our experienced team will perform a thorough exam, including X-rays, to determine if a dental crown is the best option for you. We’ll discuss your treatment plan and the type of crown that will best suit your needs.
Once the treatment is agreed upon, the affected tooth will be prepared by removing any damaged or decayed areas. We will then reshape the tooth to make space for the crown.
After the tooth is prepared, we’ll take an impression of your tooth. This ensures that your custom-made crown will fit perfectly.
A temporary crown will be placed on your tooth to protect it while the permanent crown is being fabricated in a dental lab.
Once your permanent crown is ready, you’ll return to our clinic, and we’ll remove the temporary crown and cement the new, permanent crown in place. Your bite will be adjusted to ensure comfort and function.
At Zoom Dental Clinic, we offer several types of dental crowns, each with its unique benefits:
Porcelain crowns are highly aesthetic and are commonly used for front teeth because they closely resemble natural teeth. They’re an excellent choice if you want a crown that blends seamlessly with your smile.
Metal crowns, typically made from gold or other alloys, are incredibly durable and long-lasting. They are often used for molars or back teeth where strength is prioritized over appearance.
PFM crowns offer the best of both worlds: the strength of a metal crown with the natural appearance of porcelain. They’re ideal for patients looking for a balance between durability and aesthetics.
Dental crowns provide several key benefits, including:

With proper care, dental crowns can last anywhere from 10 to 15 years, and sometimes longer.
The procedure is typically painless because it is performed under local anesthesia. Some patients may experience mild discomfort after the procedure, but this usually subsides quickly.
If your tooth has extensive decay or damage that cannot be repaired with a filling, a crown may be the best option. We will assess your situation and recommend the appropriate treatment.
Yes! Once your permanent crown is in place, you can eat and chew as usual. Just avoid hard or sticky foods to prevent damage to the crown.
