When does a tooth need a crown in Sacramento?

A dental crown covers a tooth that is cracked, badly worn, discolored, or weakened by a large filling or a root canal, so the tooth can be protected and look like a tooth again. At Lush Dental Studio in Natomas, crowns are tooth-colored and made with the in-house dental lab. Treatment options and costs are reviewed before care begins. Book online or call (916) 619-7172. Hours are Monday–Friday 8am–5pm and Saturday 8am–2pm.

How it works

From the exam to a custom crown.

After an exam and the imaging needed to see the tooth, the tooth is prepared and a temporary crown is placed. A custom crown is then made and cemented, with the shade and shape planned to match the teeth around it. Lush's in-house lab keeps that work in the same studio.

Real crown cases at Lush

Dr. Khan's published cases include a single e.max crown that matched a dark front tooth to its neighbors, zirconia crowns on two front teeth that replaced old bonding, and zirconia crowns on worn front teeth. More work is in the Smile Gallery.

Common Questions

Dental crowns — FAQ.

What is a dental crown?
A crown is a custom cap that covers a damaged tooth to restore its shape, strength and appearance. It is often used after a large filling, a crack, or a root canal, or when a tooth is badly worn or discolored.
How long does a crown take?
A crown is typically planned over visits: the tooth is prepared, a temporary crown is placed, and a custom crown is then cemented. Lush Dental Studio has an in-house dental lab, which helps keep that process coordinated in one studio.
Will a crown look natural?
Lush uses tooth-colored crowns. Shape and shade are planned to blend with the teeth next to it. Real examples are in the Smile Gallery, including a single discolored front tooth restored with one e.max crown and zirconia crowns on worn or previously bonded front teeth.
Do I need a crown after a root canal?
Many back teeth — and some front teeth — need a crown after a root canal because the remaining tooth can be more likely to fracture. We'll explain whether a crown is the next step after the exam, before anything is scheduled.
Does insurance cover crowns?
We're in-network with most PPO plans, including Delta Dental PPO, and we verify benefits before treatment begins. Coverage depends on your plan. We do not participate in HMO or Medi-Cal / Denti-Cal plans.
What if my crown comes off?
Save the crown, avoid chewing on that side, and call (916) 619-7172 the same day. See our emergency dentist page for first-aid guidance.
