Where to Get a Dental Crown in Downtown Los Angeles

Restore Strength. Improve Appearance. Protect Your Smile.

If you have a damaged, worn, or weakened tooth, a dental crown can help protect and restore it—bringing back both function and aesthetics. At Smile LA Downtown Modern Dentistry, we offer expertly crafted custom dental crowns to help patients in Los Angeles restore their smiles with confidence.


What Is a Dental Crown?

A dental crown is a protective cap that covers the visible portion of a tooth. It is bonded securely over your natural tooth to:

  • Reinforce strength

  • Restore shape and size

  • Improve appearance

  • Protect it from further damage or decay

Crowns are often part of larger treatment plans, such as implants, bridges, or full-mouth restorations.


Who Needs a Dental Crown?

Dental crowns are recommended in several situations, including:

  • Weakened or cracked teeth that need reinforcement

  • Worn-down teeth due to grinding or erosion

  • Teeth with large fillings and little structure remaining

  • Teeth after root canal therapy

  • Support for a dental bridge

  • Dental implant restorations

  • Cosmetic improvements for discolored or misshaped teeth

If you’ve been told you need a crown—or suspect you might—a consultation at Smile LA can help you explore the best solution.


Types of Dental Crowns We Offer

We provide a range of crown materials to fit your needs, preferences, and budget:

Porcelain Crowns

Beautifully match your natural teeth. Ideal for front teeth or visible areas.

Zirconia Crowns

Extremely durable and natural-looking. Great for molars and areas that need extra strength.

Porcelain-Fused-to-Metal (PFM)

Offers both strength and esthetics. Can sometimes cause slight discoloration at the gum line.

All-Metal Crowns

Highly durable and long-lasting. Best suited for back teeth that aren’t visible.

Resin Crowns

A more affordable option, but less durable than others.

Stainless Steel (Temporary)

Often used as a short-term solution while your permanent crown is being fabricated.


Caring for a Temporary Crown

If you’re wearing a temporary crown while waiting for your permanent one, follow these care tips:

  • Avoid sticky or chewy foods (gum, caramel, etc.)

  • Limit hard or crunchy foods (nuts, ice, popcorn)

  • Chew on the opposite side of your mouth

  • Floss carefully—slide, don’t lift

  • Call your dentist if the crown feels loose or comes off
