What is a Dental Crown?
A dental crown offers protection against future decay, damage, and infection so that you can enjoy a healthier smile year after year. Crafted to mimic the size and shape of a natural tooth, a crown can be made from a variety of materials.
At Advent Dental, Dr. Hejazi uses porcelain, porcelain fused to metal (PFM), zirconia, and lithium to create dental crowns. He will determine which material is required for optimal results during your scheduled consultation.
A dental crown may be necessary if:
- You have severe dental decay that has spread beyond the enamel layer
- Your tooth is damaged and requires more than a filling or cosmetic repair
- You recently received a root canal
- You require a dental implant to replace a missing tooth
- You need to replace a lost filling, inlay, or onlay
- You want a dental bridge to replace one or more missing teeth
The Dental Crown Process
To receive a dental crown, you can expect Dr. Hejazi to follow these steps:
- He will administer local anesthesia to numb your mouth before treatment begins.
- After removing the decayed or damaged parts of your tooth, he will reshape it to ensure there is enough space for the crown to fit once it is secured.
- He will take dental impressions to ensure a beautifully crafted dental crown is the result.
- After placing a temporary crown over the natural tooth, he will have the permanent one crafted by sending your impressions to a local lab.
- Once your finalized restoration is ready, you will have your temporary one replaced, creating a properly protected tooth.
The Benefits of Getting a Dental Crown
If you need additional reasons to choose a dental crown to restore your smile, here are some benefits you can expect:
- Dental crowns maintain a long lifespan, oftentimes of 15-20 years
- Dental crowns allow you to eat normally again and speak without slurring your words
- Dental crowns can be crafted to blend in with your existing smile
- Dental crowns can enhance your appearance and boost your confidence
- Dental crowns provided added stability to dental bridges and implants
- Dental crowns only require a few appointments before you see results
Understanding the Cost of Dental Crowns
Dental crowns are frequently used to restore teeth with severe damage or decay. However, because they can vary in size, placement, and materials, it is impossible to charge a ‘one-size-fits-all’ rate for this type of restoration. There are a variety of factors that Dr. Hejazi must consider when determining the type of crown you’ll need, each of which will influence the total cost of dental crowns. To learn more about this treatment and to get an accurate price quote from your dentist in Las Vegas, schedule a consultation with us today. In the meantime, feel free to read more about how we’ll calculate the price once your teeth have been examined.
Factors that Affect the Cost of Dental Crowns
There are several important factors that can influence the cost of your dental crown, including:
- How severe the damage is to your tooth, and whether any other procedures will be needed first, such as a root canal or a dental implant.
- The type of material used to make your dental crown (such as ceramic, porcelain, PFM, zirconia or lithium).
It is important to remember that when it comes to something that will be going in your mouth, quality is very important. Your new crown needs to both look and feel good as well as last for many years.
Does Dental Insurance Cover Dental Crowns?
Yes, in most cases dental insurance considers dental crowns a “major procedure” and will generally cover around 50% of their cost if deemed medically necessary. However, this will depend on your individual dental insurance plan. If you need assistance verifying your coverage, let us know and our team will be happy to help!

In addition to welcoming many dental insurance plans, Advent Dental is proud to accept flexible financing from our preferred third-party lender, CareCredit. This program allows you to break up the cost of your dental treatment into multiple, low-to-no interest monthly payments that are better suited to your budget.
