Crowns

Crowns, or dental caps, are used for both restorative and cosmetic dentistry. Crowns can help enhance the visual appearance of discoloured, chipped or otherwise traumatized teeth, and can also be used to rebuild teeth that have suffered decay, breaks, or other issues that have caused them to lose strength.

Unlike composite fillings, dental inlays, or dental onlays—which fill or cover only a portion of a tooth-- a crown is a type of dental restoration intended to cover the entire tooth from the gum line up. Cemented onto your natural tooth, a crown effectively serves as your tooth’s new surface.

Crowns can be fashioned from a variety of materials including gold alloy, porcelain or ceramic, or a combination of both. Our dentistry can provide you with additional information on your crown options, including guidance on which type of material would work best for your crown.

"My 3 girls and I had been patients of Dr. Fred for several years and were always treated in a very caring and professional manner by him and his staff.

The transition to Dr. Marc has been both seemless and painless due to his personality and excellent skill. Root canals, implants and crowns hvae been performed by Dr. Marc and I am pleased to say they have all gone smoothly and with very little discomfort!

Thanks Dr. Fred and Dr. Marc for caring so much about our dental health! "

"What can I say about the Weizenberg boys? They have looked after me (and tolerated my crankiness at times) for over 20 years and now look after my two boys. Service and their gentle care and commitment keep me a loyal fan."

"My family and I have been patients of Drs. Weizenberg for almost 30 years, first with Dr. Fred and more recently with Dr. Marc.

I have always enjoyed prompt and pain free care; I am not the bravest patient.

Dr. Fred saw my son through braces and now, in spite of advancing years, Dr. Marc is supervising the straightening of some very crooked British teeth! Invisalign, the “new technology” for orthodontic appliances is simply amazing. I am nearing the completion of this process and really see a huge difference. I would never have considered it had Dr. Marc not suggested it.

Thank you both for your dedication to my dental care!"

"I would like to share my experience as a patient of Dr. Weizenberg. The story begins in 1993, I was a college student working part-time at a card shop in Markham. One day while at work I mentioned to a colleague of mine that I needed to find a dentist as I needed some work done. She suggested Dr. Fred, her mother worked at the office and she swore he was the best of the best.

Now normally I would have taken her word for the truth, however due to my childhood and the TERRIBLE experiences I had at the dentist office I was not much of a believer but I went ahead and booked an appointment.

The day came and I went in for my cleaning. It wasn’t bad at all, in fact it would have been perfect had they not informed me that I would have to return to have a cavity filled. The thought of returning to have additional work done filled my entire body with anxiety. Memories of the pain and the discomfort I felt as a child at the dentist office came flooding back to me.
