Dental Crowns
Porcelain Crowns to Restore and Strengthen Your Teeth
A crown fully covers a damaged, decayed, or weak tooth, restoring its strength and appearance. At St. Lawrence Dentistry in Mississauga, we create custom porcelain crowns that look exactly like your natural teeth and last for decades. Crowns preserve teeth that might otherwise be lost and give you back a confident, beautiful smile.
When Do You Need a Crown
Crowns are recommended for large cavities, cracked teeth, root canal-treated teeth, weak teeth, and teeth with failed fillings. A crown saves your tooth and prevents extraction.

Durable and Natural-Looking
Our porcelain crowns are crafted to match your surrounding teeth perfectly. They’re incredibly durable, lasting 15 to 20 years or longer with proper care.
Protects Weakened Teeth
Once a tooth is crowned, it’s protected from further damage and decay. A crown preserves your natural tooth for as long as possible.
Improves Your Smile
Crowns close gaps, fix discoloration, reshape uneven teeth, and restore your confident smile. You’ll notice an immediate improvement.
Two-Appointment Process
Most crowns are completed in two visits. We prepare your tooth during the first visit and place your custom crown during the second.
FAQS
Frequently asked questions
How long do dental crowns last?
With excellent oral care, porcelain crowns last 15 to 20 years or longer. Some crowns last 25+ years.
Will my crown look natural?
Yes. We custom shade and shape your crown to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth.
Is the crown procedure painful?
We numb your tooth completely. You’ll feel pressure during preparation but no pain.
How do I care for a crown?
Brush and floss normally. Avoid chewing on hard objects like ice or hard candy.
What's the difference between a crown and a filling?
A filling restores part of the tooth. A crown covers the entire tooth, providing greater protection and durability.
Can a crown be whitened?
No. Porcelain doesn’t whiten. Whiten your natural teeth before getting a crown so we can match the color properly.
What happens if my crown breaks or falls off?
Call us immediately. We can repair or replace the crown. Don’t delay seeking treatment.
How much does a crown cost?
Cost depends on the tooth location and materials used. Contact us for a specific estimate.
