TREATMENT PROCEDURE

The first visit:

During your first visit, the tooth receiving the crown is examined using intraoral scanners, and X-rays are taken to assess its condition.

If there’s decay, risk of infection, or damage to the tooth’s pulp (the soft tissue inside the tooth), a root canal might be needed before the crown procedure.

Next, the tooth is reshaped by filing it down to make room for the crown. The amount removed depends on the crown type—ceramic crowns need less removal than porcelain-fused-to-metal.

If part of the tooth is missing, filling material is used to rebuild it.

After reshaping, a paste or putty is used to make an impression of the tooth. Impressions of the surrounding teeth are also taken to ensure the crown fits your bite properly.

The impressions are sent to a dental laboratory. The laboratory makes the crowns and usually returns them in 2-3 days or within a week.

The second visit:

At the second visit, the permanent crown is placed on your tooth.

The fit and colour of the permanent crown are checked. If everything is okay, the new crown is permanently secured in place.

Treatment Instructions for Maryland Bridges:

We will lightly etch the back of your adjacent/neighbouring teeth to help the bonding surface and apply a bonding resin to the back of each adjacent tooth.

Our dentists will place the bridge’s metal wings to the bonding resin on the back of each tooth, fitting the new tooth in the gap.

We will cure the resin to secure the dental bridge in place
