Dental Crowns in Winnipeg
Say goodbye to tooth sensitivity and unsightly metal margins. Our metal-free, shade-matched porcelain crowns fit comfortably over your natural tooth—blending invisibly into your smile while restoring full function.
A crown – also known as a cap – is a custom-made artificial restoration that permanently covers your teeth. It restores the appearance, function and shape of your teeth. Often made of porcelain, dental crowns act as a durable solution for tooth decay, cracks and discolorations.
Dental crowns are a long-term option for treating dental health issues as they can last for up to 15 years. They protect your teeth from further damage if you are experiencing tooth decay. They also support your teeth and healing process if you have recently had a root canal or dental implant procedure.
When you have chipped or cracked teeth, dental crowns will be placed over your tooth to visibly and physically revitalize your smile. Getting a crown when you need one will restore and often completely save your tooth’s shape, size and strength.
While there are different types of dental crowns, most of our patients choose a porcelain-finished crown because of its ability to blend right in with their existing smile.
If you are experiencing tooth decay or damage, contact us to create a treatment plan for you.

Frequently Asked Questions About Dental Crowns
What is a dental crown and why might I need one?
A dental crown is a custom-made cap that covers and protects a damaged tooth. Your dentist may recommend one for a large cavity, cracked or worn tooth, after root canal treatment, or to restore a dental implant. Crowns rebuild strength, shape and appearance while helping you keep your natural tooth.
How long do dental crowns last?
Dental crowns commonly last 10 to 15 years, and some last longer with good care. Their lifespan depends on the crown material, your bite, oral hygiene and habits such as teeth grinding or chewing ice. Daily brushing, flossing and regular dental checkups help protect both the crown and the tooth underneath.
Does getting a dental crown hurt?
The tooth is numbed with local anesthetic, so you should feel pressure rather than pain while the crown is prepared and placed. Mild gum tenderness or temperature sensitivity can occur for a few days afterward. Contact your dentist if discomfort is severe, worsens or does not settle.
How many appointments does it take to get a dental crown?
A traditional crown usually takes two appointments. At the first visit, the tooth is prepared, an impression or digital scan is taken and a temporary crown is placed. At the second visit, the permanent crown is checked for fit, comfort and colour before it is securely bonded in place.
Can a dental crown be repaired if it chips or comes loose?
Sometimes a chipped crown can be smoothed or repaired, but a loose, cracked or badly damaged crown may need replacement. If your crown moves, breaks or falls off, keep it in a safe place and contact the dental office promptly. Do not use household glue or keep chewing on the affected tooth.
How should I care for my dental crown?
Care for a crown much like a natural tooth: brush twice a day with fluoride toothpaste, floss around it daily and keep regular dental checkups. Avoid chewing ice or very hard objects, and ask about a night guard if you grind your teeth. Call your dentist if the crown feels loose or your bite changes.
