Dental Crowns in North Vancouver

A dental crown is one of the most versatile and reliable restorations in dentistry. At Expo North Vancouver, Dr. Mohsen Shahrokhi places custom-made crowns that restore the strength, function, and appearance of damaged or compromised teeth — all in-house at 903 Expo Boulevard.

What Is a Dental Crown?

Full Coverage Protection for a Damaged Tooth A dental crown is a custom-fitted cap that fits over the entire visible surface of a tooth above the gum line. It restores the tooth to its original shape, size, and function while protecting it from further damage. Crowns are made from durable materials designed to blend seamlessly with your surrounding teeth and withstand the full forces of everyday chewing.

When Is a Crown Necessary? Crowns are one of the most commonly recommended restorations in general and restorative dentistry. You may need a crown if you have:

  • A tooth that is severely decayed and cannot be restored with a filling alone
  • A cracked or fractured tooth that is at risk of breaking further
  • A tooth that has been weakened following a root canal treatment
  • A broken or badly worn-down tooth
  • A large old filling that has failed and needs replacing
  • A dental implant that requires a crown to complete the restoration
  • A tooth that needs reshaping for cosmetic reasons as part of a smile makeover

What to Expect During Your Crown Treatment

A Straightforward Process Completed Over Two Appointments Getting a crown at Expo North Vancouver typically takes two appointments:

  • Appointment 1 — The tooth is assessed, prepared, and shaped. Digital impressions are taken and a temporary crown is fitted to protect the tooth while your permanent crown is being made
  • Between appointments — Your custom crown is crafted in a dental laboratory to precise specifications
  • Appointment 2 — The temporary crown is removed, your permanent crown is checked for fit, bite, and colour, then bonded permanently in place

 

The entire process is carried out under local anaesthetic for your comfort, and most patients find it straightforward from start to finish.

I used to be a total dental coward before I started visiting North Shore Dental Group, but all that has changed thanks to their exceptional care and attention. From the moment you walk in the door, you're greeted by friendly and caring staff who go out of their way to make you feel comfortable. Dr. Hossein Sarrafan at North Shore Dental Group is truly skilled and has a gentle demeanor that immediately puts you at ease. He took the time to understand my fears and concerns and worked with me to develop a treatment plan that was tailored to my needs. Thanks to all of the staff's expertise and care, I no longer fear any dental work. But it's not just the dentist who deserves praise. The dental hygienists at North Shore Dental Group are simply exceptional. They took the time to teach me how to keep my teeth in top shape and provided me with invaluable advice on oral hygiene. They're always patient and kind, and they truly care about their patients' wellbeing. Overall, I can't say enough good things about North Shore Dental Group. From the girls who greet you when you arrive to the skilled and caring dentist and dental hygienist, everyone at this practice is dedicated to providing top-notch care. I've recommended them to friends and family, and I'll continue to do so in the future. If you're looking for a dentist who truly cares about your wellbeing and will take away your fear of dental work, look no further than North Shore Dental Group on Marine Driv

I visited Dr. Viona for a dental cleaning and filling, and the experience was truly excellent. She was very professional, thorough, and patient, making the entire process pain-free and comfortable. The clinic is clean and calming, and the staff are friendly and helpful. I completely trust Dr. Viona and will definitely continue to have all my dental work done at this clinic. I’m very grateful for the outstanding care!
