As part of our comprehensive restorative dentistry services, we provide custom dental crowns that combine durability with aesthetic excellence. Dr. Shahira Saad uses her artistic eye and conservative approach to create crowns that preserve your natural tooth structure while restoring full function.
Dental crowns are custom-made caps that completely cover damaged or weakened teeth. These versatile restorative solutions restore both the appearance and function of your teeth, allowing you to eat, speak, and smile with confidence.
Dr. Saad carefully designs each crown to match your natural teeth in color and shape, ensuring a seamless, natural-looking result. Made from high-quality porcelain or ceramic materials, your dental crown will blend perfectly with your smile. For teeth with minor damage, we also offer restorative fillings as a less invasive alternative.

Dental crowns provide exceptional protection for vulnerable teeth, creating a durable shield against further damage. This allows you to enjoy your favorite foods with confidence while preserving your natural tooth structure beneath. Each crown is precisely fitted to restore full chewing function and protect weakened tooth enamel.
Our custom-crafted crowns are designed to capture the unique translucency, color, and shape of your natural teeth. Working with our Master Ceramist, we ensure the result is a seamless smile that looks completely natural yet refreshed.
With proper care, your dental crowns can last 10-15 years or more. This durable, long-term solution not only restores your smile's appearance but creates lasting oral health benefits that improve your overall wellbeing. Regular dental visits and cleanings help maximize the lifespan of your restoration.
Your journey begins with a personalized consultation where Dr. Saad uses her Dental Photography Studio to capture detailed images of your smile. These high-resolution photos, combined with gentle examination and images from our Nomad Handheld X-ray Unit, help create your custom treatment plan while ensuring your comfort. During this visit, we'll discuss whether a dental crown is the right solution for your specific needs.
Using our state-of-the-art iTero Intraoral Scanner, we'll capture incredibly precise digital scans without the discomfort of traditional putty materials. Dr. Saad may also utilize Virtual Smile Design Consults to show you a preview of your expected results. A temporary crown is placed while our Master Ceramist crafts your permanent restoration. This typically takes about two weeks, during which your temporary crown protects your tooth.
When your custom dental crown arrives from our Master Ceramist, you'll return for the final placement. Dr. Saad will meticulously check the fit, color match, and bite alignment before permanently bonding the crown to your tooth. You'll leave with a naturally beautiful restoration that feels comfortable and looks completely natural.
You may need a dental crown if you have a cracked or broken tooth, severe tooth decay, a large filling that weakens the tooth structure, or after root canal treatment. Dental crowns also enhance cosmetic appearance for misshapen or severely discolored teeth.
At our Newport Beach practice, we evaluate each patient’s unique situation to determine if a crown is the most conservative and effective solution. Dr. Saad’s conservative approach means we always aim to preserve as much natural tooth structure as possible.
Common situations where dental crowns may be recommended include:
We’re here to answer your questions about dental crowns.
The dental crown process typically requires two appointments spaced about two weeks apart. During your first visit, Dr. Saad will prepare your tooth and place a temporary crown. Once our Master Ceramist has crafted your custom crown, you’ll return for the final placement appointment, which usually takes about an hour.
Maintain your dental crown by continuing your regular brushing and flossing routine, along with your periodic visits to LALUME Dental Studio. Avoid using your teeth as tools or chewing ice, and consider a night guard if you grind your teeth during sleep.
