Dental Crowns in San Marino, CA
Restore Your Tooth — and Your Confidence
Functional Strength Meets Natural Beauty
When a tooth is damaged, decayed, or weakened, a custom dental crown can restore strength, function, and appearance — all in one solution. At the San Marino office of Dr. Fary Yassamy, we create high-quality, natural-looking crowns that support both your smile and your overall oral health.
Whether you're repairing a tooth after a root canal, replacing a large filling, or upgrading an old crown, we offer solutions that look and feel like your natural teeth. Patients from San Marino, San Gabriel, and surrounding areas trust us for crowns that last — and never compromise on aesthetics.
What Is a Dental Crown?
A crown is a custom-made cap that fully covers and protects a damaged or compromised tooth. It restores:
- Strength for chewing and biting
- Shape and size for proper alignment
- Appearance for a seamless, healthy smile
- Protection against future fractures or decay
Crowns are often used when a filling isn’t strong enough or after more extensive procedures like root canals or implant restorations.
When Is a Crown Needed?
We may recommend a dental crown to:
- Strengthen a tooth after root canal treatment
- Restore a broken, worn, or cracked tooth
- Cover a tooth with a large or failing filling
- Replace a damaged or unattractive old crown
- Support a dental bridge
- Complete a dental implant
We also offer cosmetic crowns when you're looking to improve the look of a discolored, misshapen, or short tooth as part of a smile makeover.
Types of Crowns We Offer
We use durable, biocompatible, and aesthetic materials that blend beautifully into your natural smile:
- All-ceramic crowns — ideal for front teeth or patients with metal allergies
- Porcelain crowns — strong and stain-resistant, excellent for both front and back teeth
- Implant crowns — to restore function and appearance after implant placement
- Cosmetic crowns — used to enhance symmetry, length, or color in visible areas
Each crown is designed with your bite, muscle function, and long-term comfort in mind.
Our Crown Process
Here’s what to expect when you receive a crown at our office:
- Initial evaluation — we assess the tooth, surrounding structure, and your bite
- Tooth preparation — any decay is removed and the tooth is shaped to fit the crown
- Impression or scan — we take precise models to send to a trusted dental lab
- Temporary crown — worn while your permanent crown is being crafted
- Final placement — we fit, polish, and cement your crown for strength and beauty
Your comfort is our priority at every step, and we’ll take the time to ensure your bite feels right and your crown looks seamless.
