I had a badly broken upper left front tooth. I called Kevin Barry DDS’s office and they took me for an emergency appointment that very afternoon. Kevin and his staff did an outstanding job of making, and placing a beautiful temporary cap. I get the permanent cap in two weeks.

What Is a Dental Crown?

A dental crown is a custom-made cap that we place over a damaged, weakened, or aesthetically flawed tooth. It restores strength, shape, and appearance—while protecting the remaining tooth structure for years. Crowns can also top implants, support bridges, or complete a smile makeover. We craft each one precisely, designed to blend perfectly with your natural teeth.

Porcelain and ceramic crowns offer a lifelike look, while metal or zirconia options provide extra durability when needed. No matter the material, we ensure your crown fits seamlessly and functions beautifully.

Attain Near-Royalty Status With Crowns in San Francisco

We treat every crown like a work of art. Our team uses cutting-edge tools—including a CBCT scanner, intraoral scanner, and laser dentistry—to design crowns that fit comfortably and look stunning. Our technology allows us to plan with pinpoint accuracy and minimize treatment time, often finishing procedures more efficiently than traditional methods.

We speak Spanish and Japanese, making it easy for more patients to feel confident, informed, and cared for from start to finish. Our office runs on time, respects your schedule, and offers cozy touches like blankets and serene surroundings to make every visit feel like a luxury appointment.

When your care requires a referral, we don’t just send you—we walk you there. This building is a nexus of elite dental specialists, and our patients love how quickly and smoothly we coordinate with periodontists, endodontists, and more—often the very same day.

The “Coronation” Process

  • Consultation and Evaluation: Your visit begins with a one-on-one consultation with the dentist. We use diagnostic tools like 3D imaging and digital scans to assess your tooth’s condition. If a crown fits your needs, we explain your options, outline the steps, and answer every question. Need financial flexibility? We offer CareCredit to help you access the care you need without delay.
  • Custom Treatment Planning: We create a tailored treatment plan using digital design technology. The dentist carefully plans the crown’s shape, color, and placement, ensuring it will restore both appearance and function. You’ll feel fully informed and supported from the first appointment.
  • Tooth Preparation: We prepare your tooth by gently removing any damaged or decayed material, then shape the tooth to support the crown. This process feels comfortable with local anesthesia, and we work with care to preserve as much of your natural tooth as possible.
  • Temporary Crown: We place a temporary crown to protect your tooth and maintain your bite while the final crown is in production. You’ll leave our office with a functional, natural-looking smile—no awkward in-between period.
  • Crown Placement: Once your custom crown arrives, we check the fit, color, and bite alignment before bonding it permanently in place. The dentist ensures the final restoration feels natural and enhances your smile’s symmetry. Most patients feel a noticeable boost in confidence when they look in the mirror.

Giving Your Crown the Royal Treatment

Treating your crown well and taking care of it will extend its life. Here are our simple, practical care tips:

  • Brush and floss daily to keep surrounding teeth and gums healthy
  • Visit us regularly for checkups and cleanings—we’ll monitor your crown for long-term success
  • Avoid chewing on hard objects like ice or pens
  • Follow personalized care recommendations from our team

We often pair crowns with additional cosmetic treatments like teeth whitening or Invisalign to complete a total smile transformation. When you invest in your smile, we help you make the most of it.
