Patient Guide

Crowns protect teeth that need more than a filling.

A dental crown covers and protects a tooth when a filling would not be strong enough. This may happen after cracks, large cavities, root canals, heavy wear, or older restorations that have weakened the tooth.

At Astra Dental, crown planning includes shape, bite, material, color, gum fit, and long-term maintenance. Some cases may qualify for same-day crown workflows, while others benefit from lab-fabricated restorations.

The goal is a tooth that looks natural, feels comfortable, and has a better chance of lasting.

Dental Crowns in Stratford

A tooth that is broken, damaged, or in generally poor condition can be harmful to your health. It can also affect your comfort and self-confidence.

Dental crowns are almost exactly the way they sound: a crown or cap for your tooth. Dental crowns help restore a tooth, resulting in a more esthetic appearance.

Crowns can replace severe cases of tooth decay that have resulted in a large amount of tooth loss. Crowns allow dentists to restore form and function without needing to perform an extraction when the tooth can be saved.

Common Questions

Dental Crowns FAQ

Why would I need a crown?

Crowns are often recommended when a tooth is too damaged for a filling to predictably protect it.

Are same-day crowns available?

Some eligible cases may be completed with same-day crown technology.

Can a crown fix a cracked tooth?

Many cracked teeth can be protected with crowns, but deep cracks or nerve involvement may require root canal treatment or extraction.

How do I care for a crown?

Brush, floss, keep routine cleanings, and avoid using crowned teeth as tools. Crowns still need healthy gums and tooth structure underneath.
