Dental Crowns in Los Angeles, CA

Damaged or worn teeth can impact how you eat, speak, and smile. Dental crowns offer an excellent solution to restore strength, shape, and natural appearance. At our dental office, we provide custom-made crowns that blend seamlessly with your smile—helping you regain comfort, function, and confidence.

A dental crown is a tooth-shaped covering that fits over the entire visible part of a tooth. It’s used to protect weakened teeth, repair fractures, or enhance aesthetics. Durable and natural-looking, crowns are carefully crafted to match the color and contour of your existing teeth for long-lasting, beautiful results.

Why You Might Need A Crown

Your dentist may recommend a crown if you have:
  • A tooth that’s cracked or broken
  • A large filling that needs extra support
  • A tooth that’s worn down or weakened
  • A misshapen or discolored tooth
  • A tooth that had a root canal
  • A dental implant that needs a cover

Exam and Preparation

First, your dentist will carefully examine your tooth to ensure a crown is the right solution. X-rays may be taken if necessary. The tooth is then gently reshaped to create enough space for the crown to fit comfortably and securely.

2

Impressions

Next, we take an impression of your tooth to create a crown that fits perfectly. The impression is sent to a dental lab where your custom crown is made. You’ll get a temporary crown to protect your tooth in the meantime.

3

Crown Placement

When your permanent crown is ready—typically within 1–2 weeks—you’ll return for your second appointment. Your dentist will remove the temporary crown, ensure the new one fits perfectly and matches your natural tooth color, and then securely bond it in place with dental cement.

4

Final Touches

The dentist will make final adjustments to ensure your bite feels natural and comfortable. Once everything fits perfectly, your new crown is complete—and your smile is fully restored!

Permanent Crown Placement
