Dental Crowns in Hamilton


A dental crown is a covering that sits over the top of the tooth creating a tooth surface to protect, cover, seal and strengthen your tooth. Cosmetic dental crowns are used in many different scenarios as they are effective and often allow us to save a tooth rather than turning to dental implants.

Situations where a dental crown may be the solution include:

  • Larger fillings that have broken down or have formed decay around them may need a dental crown to save the tooth.
  • A cracked tooth may need a dental crown to hold it together. Be careful not to wait too long as an untreated cracked tooth can become sensitive or eventually break.
  • Teeth that are very sensitive, either from a lot of "wear", or from receded gums, sometimes require dental crowns to seal and protect the teeth from hot and cold sensitivity.
  • A tooth that has broken may be too weak to hold a filling. A dental crown will hold the tooth together and prevent it from breaking again. If the fracture is too deep, Root Canal Therapy may be required before the tooth is crowned.
  • A tooth that has undergone Root Canal Therapy will need a dental crown to properly seal and protect the tooth.

A dental crown may be the solution to saving that tooth. Ancaster and Hamilton dentist, Dr. Barzilay will evaluate your needs depending on your oral health and the condition of your teeth. Book an appointment with us today!
