Tooth Crowns in Calgary, AB

Repair a damaged tooth to help restore your smile’s function with dental crowns in Calgary.

Severe tooth damage is a significant risk factor for losing a tooth, which is why repairing the tooth is so important. If you’re dealing with a damaged or badly decayed tooth, dental crowns in Calgary may be an option to consider.

Crowns are custom-fit caps that our dentist at 16th Avenue Dental bonds to your tooth to help restore its shape, strength, and appearance. Schedule a consultation to learn more today.

What Is a Dental Crown?

Dental crowns are used to restore broken or decayed teeth. They help protect the remaining natural tooth structure from further damage and support function.

Crowns are commonly made from a number of materials, including gold, full porcelain, or porcelain-fused-to-metal. Porcelain crowns are a popular choice because of their durability and natural appearance.

Why Do I Need a Tooth Crown in Calgary?

A dental crown is a strong and durable restoration. You may need a crown if you’ve had a:

Large filling
Root canal
Broken or severely worn down tooth
Stained, unaesthetic, or misshapen tooth

Benefits of Porcelain Crowns

Older crowns were made from metal, but modern options offer a more natural look. Zirconia and porcelain are the most common crown options, with porcelain offering close natural-tooth matching and good stain resistance.

Benefits of porcelain crowns include:

They match enamel closely
Resistant to dark foods and drinks
A long lifespan with proper care

How Long Will a Dental Crown Last?

On average, dental crowns last 15 to 20 years with proper care. They’re strong and durable but may not be as strong as your natural teeth. To help extend your crown’s lifespan, we recommend:

Wearing a nightguard if you clench or grind your teeth at night
Avoid biting down on hard objects (ice, forks, bottle caps, etc.)
Avoid using your teeth as a tool to open or cut things

I had an occlusal adjustment done at 16th Avenue Dental, and I’m very happy with the results. The staff were friendly and professional, and the dentist explained everything clearly. Highly recommend!

I’ve been seeing Dr. Le and her team for many years now and I can honestly say I wouldn’t trust my dental care anywhere else. Even after living in three different cities, I’ve always come back here and still feel compelled to leave five-star reviews.

Huge call out to the staff, in particularly Sherry, for the outstanding service when I had a crown loosen just before leaving on vacation. My usual dentist is not in Calgary and they were able to assist. Thank you

Had a filling done by Dr. Le at 16th Avenue Dental and I’m very happy with the results. The work was done professionally and the filling looks completely natural – you can’t even tell it’s there!

If you’re a student at AUArts I totally recommend this place. They do direct billing and it’s very accessible by transit. I guess you could walk there if you wanted to.

Dr. Le got all of my wisdom teeth out (across two appointments). Everyone at 16th Ave Dental was super friendly and so kind.
