Dental Crowns in Vancouver: Natural-Looking, Long-Lasting Protection

Yes. Granville Dental Wellness Group provides custom dental crowns at our Vancouver (Marpole) and Richmond locations. Dr. Gianni Pisanu, DMD, and Dr. Pavan Kooner, DMD, use digital scans for precise crown planning and match each crown to the shade and shape of your surrounding teeth for a seamless, natural result.

A dental crown at Granville Dental Wellness Group typically requires two appointments. The first visit (60 to 90 minutes) involves tooth preparation and placing a temporary crown. The second visit, usually two to three weeks later, bonds your final custom crown in place. In straightforward cases, some crowns may be completed more quickly.

Dr. Gianni Pisanu, DMD, at Granville Dental Wellness Group recommends a crown when a tooth has suffered large decay, a significant crack, or has undergone a root canal. Crowns are also used to anchor dental bridges and to protect severely worn teeth. A crown restores full biting strength and prevents the tooth from fracturing.

Dental crowns at Granville Dental Wellness Group are crafted from durable porcelain or zirconia and last 10 to 15 years with proper care. Avoiding hard foods, wearing a nightguard if you grind your teeth, and attending regular six-month checkups all help extend crown longevity beyond this range.
