What is included

Fillings and crowns, with our general dentists

Fillings and crowns at Maplegate are provided by our general dentists. A filling repairs a small area of decay. When a tooth is badly broken or weakened after a root canal, your dentist may recommend a crown, which covers the whole tooth. Crowns usually take two visits, with a temporary crown in between. Before any treatment starts, we give you a written estimate and send a predetermination to your insurance plan if you ask.

  1. Tooth-coloured fillings
  2. Porcelain and ceramic crowns
  3. Bridges to replace a missing tooth
  4. Written estimate before treatment
  5. Insurance predeterminations on request

When we refer

If a missing tooth would be better replaced with an implant, we explain the option and refer you to another dental office that places implants.

A written estimate before treatment

We bill most insurance plans and the Canadian Dental Care Plan directly. Before any treatment, you get a written estimate that shows what your plan should pay.

Questions

Often asked

Call (613) 555-0184 and the front desk will answer anything else.

Will my insurance pay for a crown?

Many plans pay part of the cost. We can send a predetermination to your plan first, so you know what it will pay before you book.

What colour are the fillings?

We use tooth-coloured fillings. Your general dentist will explain the options for your tooth.

How long does a crown take?

Usually two treatment visits about two weeks apart, with a temporary crown in between.
