Often crowns, also known as caps, are needed to restore broken or damaged teeth above the gum line. Crowns enhance your appearance while adding strength to your teeth. You have probably seen gold crowns, but porcelain crowns are the most popular as they closely resemble your natural teeth. We create crowns that blend beautifully and naturally into your smile, fitting in with your existing teeth.
If you have any of these issues, you should consider a crown:
a fractured filling that needs repair
a broken tooth that need fixing
a decayed tooth you want to restore
you are considering cosmetic enhancement
A crown will often be recommended when a root canal is necessary on a tooth.

Meet Dr. Lily Nguyen
Dr. Lily Nguyen (“Win”) spent the majority of her childhood growing up in Toronto and Winnipeg before her family settled in Ottawa. She received her Bachelor’s degree in Biomedical Sciences from the University of Ottawa and her Doctorate of Dental Medicine degree from Nova Southeastern University in sunny south Florida. Upon graduation, she was inducted into the national dental honor society Omicron Kappa Upsilon for exemplary character and scholarship. Following dental school, Dr. Nguyen pursued advanced training at a 2-year hospital-based general practice residency at the University of Virginia so that she could be better equipped to treat any type of patient who might sit in her dental chair. During her residency, she served as chief resident in her second year; coordinating and providing treatment to patients with medical complexities including head and neck cancer, organ failure, bleeding disorders and children with special needs.
Having spent the last few years living and working in the US, her feet got itchy again and it was time for a new adventure and a change of scenery. She decided to call Victoria her new home after was charmed off her feet by the island’s natural beauty, friendly faces and relaxing pace. On rainy days, she likes to cozy up with some tea, watch all sorts of cooking programs and learn about different cultures through culinary histories. Otherwise, when the weather is nice, she enjoys getting out into nature, dog-watching, and cultivating her (admittedly amateur) green thumb by puttering around in her urban garden.
Dr. Nguyen believes the best approach to dentistry is prevention through patient education and compassionate, patient-centered care. She is dedicated to providing positive experiences and aims to build genuine relationships with all of her patients, making sure they understand their treatment every step of the way. Her patience and approachability are sure to make you feel at ease. She can’t wait to meet you!
