Implant Crowns in Calgary
What are Implant Crowns?
Implant crowns are custom-made restorations placed on top of a dental implant to replace a missing tooth. The implant acts as an artificial root, while the crown is designed to match the shape, size, and color of your natural teeth.
This combination creates a strong, stable, and natural-looking solution that feels just like your own tooth. Implant crowns are one of the most effective ways to restore both function and aesthetics after tooth loss.

What to Expect at Southcentre Dental
Comprehensive Evaluation
We begin with a detailed exam and imaging to assess your oral health and determine if an implant crown is right for you.
Treatment Planning
We create a personalized treatment plan, coordinating with specialists if implant placement is required.
Implant Placement (If Needed)
If you don’t already have an implant, it will be placed into the jawbone to act as a stable foundation.
Custom Crown Design
Once healing is complete, we take precise impressions to create a crown that matches your natural teeth perfectly.
Placement & Final Adjustments
Your implant crown is securely attached and adjusted to ensure a comfortable fit, proper bite, and natural appearance.
A healthy smile builds confidence
Link Between Oral & Overall Health
Replacing missing teeth is important not just for your smile, but for your overall health. Gaps in your smile can lead to shifting teeth, bite issues, and even bone loss in the jaw.
Implant crowns help maintain proper alignment, support jawbone health, and improve your ability to eat a balanced diet—contributing to better long-term wellness.
How Often / Who Needs Implant Crowns
Implant crowns are typically a long-term solution rather than a recurring treatment. Once placed, they can last many years with proper care and regular dental visits.
They are ideal for patients who want a permanent, stable solution for missing teeth and are looking to restore both function and aesthetics.
At-Home Tips Between Visits
Taking care of your teeth at home is essential for protecting your oral health—especially if you’re managing a sensitive or treated tooth. These simple habits can help support healing and prevent further issues:
- Brush and floss daily, including around the implant area
- Use a soft-bristled toothbrush and non-abrasive toothpaste
- Avoid biting on very hard objects (ice, hard candy)
- Attend regular dental checkups and cleanings
- Follow your dentist’s care instructions for long-term success
