Fillings & Crowns

Fillings and crowns are essential dental procedures used to restore teeth that have been damaged by decay or injury. Fillings replace decayed portions of teeth, while crowns provide a durable cover for weakened teeth, offering strength and stability. Dr. Stan Chickey at the East Coast Centre for Cosmetic Dentistry uses advanced techniques and high-quality materials, such as composite resin and zirconia, to ensure your dental work not only functions perfectly but also looks natural. These treatments are customized to your individual needs, ensuring long-lasting results that support both oral health and cosmetic appearance.

Cavities and tooth damage can weaken the tooth structure, leading to further complications if left untreated. Fillings and crowns are designed to correct these issues. A filling restores the decayed portion of a tooth, while a crown completely encases and strengthens a weakened tooth. Both solutions are made from materials that blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, offering both cosmetic and structural benefits. Fillings are often used for minor decay, while crowns are more suitable for larger areas of damage or when a tooth has undergone root canal therapy. Both treatments are performed to help preserve tooth health and functionality.
