Bleeding gums during brushing or flossing are often dismissed as a minor issue, but they are one of the earliest warning signs of underlying health
Sensitive teeth can turn even something as simple as drinking a cold soda or enjoying a scoop of ice cream into a sharp, unpleasant shock
A sudden zing when you sip something cold, a dull ache that won’t go away, or sharp pain when you bite down aren’t random issues.

A cracked, worn, or heavily filled tooth can still work for years if it gets the right protection. A dental crown covers the entire visible part of the tooth, holding it together and restoring its shape so you can bite and chew with confidence again.
At Care For You Dental, Dr. Lubna Anwar places dental crowns for patients across Las Vegas who want a restoration that looks natural and lasts. Crowns are a core part of our restorative dentistry in Las Vegas, and we use digital X-rays, an intraoral camera, and a Medit intraoral scanner to plan each one around your bite.
A crown is a tooth-shaped cap that fits over a tooth after it has been shaped to make room. It restores strength to a tooth that a filling can no longer support, and it can improve the tooth’s color, size, and shape at the same time.
According to MedlinePlus from the National Library of Medicine, getting a crown usually takes two visits, and most crowns last at least 5 years, with many lasting 15 to 20 years when they are cared for well.
Dr. Anwar recommends a crown when a tooth needs more support than a filling can give. Common reasons include:
At your exam, we will show you images of the tooth from our intraoral camera so you can see exactly why a crown is or is not the right fit.
Every crown we place is reviewed by the dentist who will seat it before it ever reaches your mouth.
Dr. Lubna Anwar
Dentist and Practice Owner
Dr. Anwar graduated from the University of Southern California School of Dentistry, where she was named to the Dean’s List, and has more than ten years of experience in general dentistry. She once taught in the dental residency program at Lutheran Medical Center in Ventura, California. She is a perfectionist about shade and fit, and she sends a crown back to the lab when it does not look and feel right.
A crown that matches your smile, not just your tooth
Shade, shape, and bite are checked before your crown is cemented, so it blends in with the teeth around it.
Most crowns are completed over two appointments. Here is what each step looks like at our office.
We take digital X-rays and photos to check the tooth, its root, and the surrounding gums.
After numbing the area, Dr. Anwar shapes the tooth and removes any decay or old filling material.
Our Medit intraoral scanner records the tooth without messy impressions, and you leave with a temporary crown.
At your second visit, we check the fit, shade, and bite of your permanent crown, then cement it in place.
Some patients may be candidates for same-day crowns, and we can talk through that option at your visit.
A crown is not always the first answer. This comparison shows how it fits with other common options.
| Factor | Filling | Dental Crown | Veneer |
|---|---|---|---|
| Best for | Small to moderate cavities | Weak, cracked, or heavily restored teeth | Cosmetic changes to front teeth |
| Tooth coverage | Fills one area | Covers the whole visible tooth | Covers the front surface |
| Adds strength | Limited | Yes | Limited |
| Typical visits | One | Usually two | Usually two or more |
If your main goal is changing the look of front teeth, our page on porcelain veneers explains how they differ from crowns.
The cost of a dental crown depends on the tooth, the material, and whether you need other care first, such as a root canal or a buildup. We give you a written estimate before treatment.
The material and any added treatment are the biggest factors in what a crown costs.
We accept many PPO plans. See our dental insurance page for details.
Monthly dental financing through CareCredit, Cherry, and other partners may be available.
Our team can check your plan’s crown benefits before your appointment.
Here are answers to the questions Las Vegas patients ask most about crowns.
The tooth is numbed before it is shaped, so most patients feel pressure rather than pain. The tooth may feel sensitive to hot or cold for a short time afterward, which usually fades on its own.
Many crowns last 15 years or longer with good care. Brushing, flossing, regular checkups, and avoiding chewing ice or hard objects all help your crown last.
Crowns can be made from porcelain, zirconia, metal, or a combination. Dr. Anwar recommends a material based on where the tooth sits, how hard you bite, and how important it is for the crown to match nearby teeth.
Yes, but chew on the other side when you can and avoid sticky or hard foods. Slide floss out to the side instead of pulling it up so the temporary stays in place.
We match the shade and shape to your surrounding teeth. If the color or fit is not right at the try-in, the crown goes back to the lab before it is cemented.
Care For You Dental opened its doors to Las Vegas families in 2018. Dr. Anwar pairs digital scanning with a careful eye for shade and fit, so your crown protects your tooth and looks like it belongs in your smile.
If a tooth is cracked, worn, or heavily filled, we can tell you whether a crown is the right step. Meet our Las Vegas dental team, and book your dental crown consultation today.
