Dental Crowns in Las Vegas
Restore Your Tooth and Keep Your Smile Intact
Dental Crowns Las Vegas
A dental crown is a custom-fitted cap that covers a damaged, cracked, or weakened tooth, restoring its shape, strength, and appearance. Dr. Keshmiri uses crowns to protect teeth after root canals, repair teeth with large cavities, and replace old or failing restorations that can no longer hold up on their own.
At Sahara Dental Center, we take impressions and match the crown to the color of your surrounding teeth so the result looks natural. Most crown procedures are completed in two visits. Your comfort is our priority throughout the process, and we will make sure you understand each step before we begin.
When Is a Crown the Right Choice?
Crowns are often recommended when a tooth is too damaged for a filling alone. Common reasons include large or deep decay, a cracked or fractured tooth, a tooth that has undergone a root canal, or a broken-down old crown or restoration. If Dr. Keshmiri recommends a crown, it means a simpler fix is unlikely to hold long term.

Frequently Asked Questions
With proper care, dental crowns typically last 10 to 15 years or longer. Good oral hygiene, regular checkups, and avoiding habits like grinding your teeth or chewing ice will help extend the life of your crown.
The procedure is done under local anesthesia, so you should not feel pain during the appointment. Some sensitivity around the tooth is normal for a few days after, but most patients find it very manageable.
Most crowns require two appointments. At the first visit, the tooth is prepared and an impression is taken. A temporary crown is placed while your permanent crown is made. At the second visit, the permanent crown is fitted and cemented in place.
It is uncommon but possible. If your crown comes loose or falls off, call us right away at (702) 257-9090. Keep the crown if you can and avoid chewing on that side until we can see you.
