Rebuild Your Smile

• Targeted Restoration: Crowns restore teeth with extensive decay, severe fractures, or post-root-canal structural compromise.
• Bridging the Gap: Bridges reliably replace one or more missing teeth by using adjacent natural teeth or implants as strong anchor supports.
• Premium Materials: Ceramic, zirconia, E.max, and porcelain-fused-to-metal options are carefully selected based on your aesthetics, strength requirements, and bite forces.
• Goo-Free Impressions: Digital intraoral scanning completely replaces uncomfortable physical impressions, resulting in a faster and far more precise fit.
• CDCP Accepted: Crowns and bridges are covered restorative services for eligible patients under the Canadian Dental Care Plan.

When a tooth is compromised beyond what a simple filling can repair, it requires a robust, long-term solution. For patients determining the best provider for dental crowns near Mississauga, North Star Dentistry offers precision restorative care.

Dental crowns and bridges restore the function, structure, and appearance of your smile. Both are fabricated in a professional dental laboratory to exact specifications, ensuring your bite feels perfectly natural and fully supported.

When Is a Crown Needed?

A tooth crown Mississauga is never placed as a cosmetic default, we only recommend it when restorative necessity warrants full coverage to save the tooth. A dental crown is highly recommended when:

• Extensive Damage: Too much tooth structure has been lost to support a filling (e.g., large cavities, fractured cusps, or broken teeth that extend below the gumline).
• Post-Root Canal: After root canal treatment on a back tooth, a crown is essential to protect the now-brittle tooth from fracturing under heavy occlusal (chewing) forces.
• Failed Fillings: An existing large filling has failed, and the remaining tooth structure is insufficient to support a new one.
• Cracked Teeth: A crack extends deep enough to cause pain on chewing or threatens to propagate into the root.
• Implant Restoration: The crown serves as the visible, functioning tooth-replacement component placed securely on top of a dental implant.

When Is a Bridge Needed?

A dental bridge is an excellent option when:

• One or more adjacent teeth are missing, and the patient does not want or is not a clinical candidate for dental implants.
• The adjacent teeth on either side of the gap are already heavily compromised (requiring crowns regardless), making a bridge a smart, dual-purpose restoration.
• A fixed, non-removable replacement is strongly preferred over a removable partial denture.

Dental bridges Mississauga include conventional bridges (supported by prepared natural teeth) and implant-supported bridges (where implants replace the need to alter adjacent healthy teeth).
