A crown covers and protects a damaged tooth, restoring its strength, shape, and function. Like everything we do, it's built to hold up, not just to look fine at your next checkup.
What Is a Dental Crown?
A dental crown is a custom-made cap that fits over your existing tooth, covering it completely. It restores a tooth that's been weakened by decay, a large filling, a crack, or a root canal, giving it back its strength and natural shape without needing to remove it.
are dental crowns right for you?
Crowns are commonly needed after a root canal, to protect a cracked or heavily filled tooth, or to cover a dental implant. They're also used to reshape a tooth that's discoloured, worn down, or just not doing its job anymore.
CEREC Same-Day Crowns
At The Smile Garage, we use CEREC technology to design, craft, and place most crowns in a single visit. That means no temporary crown, waiting weeks for a lab, or a second appointment just to finish what should've been done the first time.

WHY WE LOVE IT
Some cases still call for a lab-made crown instead, and we'll walk you through that if it applies to you. But for most patients, same-day means one visit, not two, and no gap where you're stuck with a temporary that never quite feels right.
