Restore a tooth, restore a smile

A crown is a type of dental restoration used to improve teeth that are weak, fractured, broken or are decayed. The crown is placed over the entire surface of the tooth, protecting it as well as providing extra tooth strength. At The Care Dental Group, we use the most advanced dental materials creating natural, tooth-coloured porcelain crowns that are made to match the rest of your teeth.

  • Provide protection to weak or cracked teeth.
  • Eliminate the need for extraction.

  • Enhance small or worn down teeth.
  • Restore proper chewing and biting capabilities.
