Crowns & Bridges in Las Vegas

A cracked molar, a broken front tooth, or a gap where a tooth used to be can make eating and smiling feel like a daily problem. In Las Vegas, where dry air and a busy schedule push dental care down the list, a damaged tooth rarely fixes itself and usually gets harder to treat the longer it waits.

At Stavarache Family Dental on West Cheyenne Avenue in northwest Las Vegas, crowns and bridges are everyday restorative work. Dr. Hidy Stavarache has cared for local families since 1995, and he keeps the plan simple, honest, and built around your tooth. You can review our full services or jump straight to booking .

What Crowns and Bridges Do at Stavarache Family Dental

A crown is a custom cap that covers a tooth that has lost structure to decay, a fracture, or a large old filling. It restores the shape and the bite so the tooth works again. A bridge replaces one or more missing teeth by anchoring replacement teeth to the natural teeth on each side of the gap.

Both restorations protect what is left of your tooth and keep nearby teeth from drifting. A tooth that is left broken can shift the bite, trap food, and strain the teeth around it, so restoring it early tends to keep the work simpler. Dr. Stavarache matches the choice to the tooth in front of him rather than a default plan, so the fix fits your mouth, your bite, and your budget.

Crown and Bridge Options

We keep your choices clear so you understand what each material trades and what it costs.

• Porcelain, porcelain fused to metal, and zirconia crowns, which balance natural appearance against strength for front teeth and molars
• Fixed bridges that anchor to the teeth on each side of a gap to replace one or more missing teeth
• Implant-supported crowns and bridges that stand on their own without leaning on neighboring teeth, covered on our dental implants page

If the damage is small, a tooth-colored filling may be enough, and Dr. Stavarache will say so plainly.

Meet Dr. Hidy Stavarache

Dr. Hidy Stavarache, DDS, has practiced in Las Vegas since 1995 as the one dentist at Stavarache Family Dental. He designs and seats crowns and bridges himself, so the person who studies your bite is the same person who fits the final restoration.

That continuity matters with restorative work. Small details in the margin and the bite shape how a crown feels and how long it serves you, and Dr. Stavarache handles those details directly rather than handing them off.

Why Choose Stavarache Family Dental for Crowns and Bridges in Las Vegas

We built this practice around fit and honesty, not volume. A few things set the visit apart.

• Precise fit, because one dentist follows your case from preparation to the final seat
• Material honesty, so you hear the real trade-offs of porcelain, metal, and zirconia before you choose
• No upsell, which means we recommend the restoration your tooth needs and nothing extra
• One dentist who knows your history, instead of a rotating roster

What to Expect When Getting a Crown or Bridge

Most crowns and bridges take two visits, and we explain each step so nothing feels like a surprise.

• Preparation, where the tooth is numbed and shaped so the crown or bridge has room to fit
• Impression, a digital or physical mold that the lab uses to build your restoration to the right shape and bite
• Temporary, a protective cover that keeps the tooth comfortable while the final piece is made
• Final seat, where Dr. Stavarache checks the fit and bite, adjusts as needed, and bonds the restoration in place

If you feel pressure or a high spot after the seat, we adjust it. A crown that bites correctly should feel like your own tooth, and mild sensitivity in the first days usually settles on its own. We send you home knowing how to care for the temporary and what to watch for before the final visit.

Cost, Insurance, and Financing

Crowns in Las Vegas commonly run about $900 to $1,600 per tooth, and a three-unit bridge usually falls between $2,700 and $4,800. Material drives much of that range, since zirconia and all-porcelain work sit higher than porcelain fused to metal.

A few factors raise the total. A core buildup to rebuild a broken tooth, or a root canal before the crown, adds to the work and the cost. We flag those needs early and put them in writing.

Most plans treat crowns and bridges as major restorative care and pay a share after the deductible. We bill your insurance first, then show you the remaining balance. For balances you want to spread out, CareCredit financing is available, and you always get a written itemized quote before any work starts. If you are weighing replacement options, our bridge versus implant guide lays out the trade-offs.
