Care that takes
its time. The Crown Dental Center — a family, cosmetic, and emergency dentist in Dyer, Indiana.

Family & Emergency Dentist in Dyer, Indiana.

02About

A practice built around how the visit actually feels.

Most of us were raised to dread the dentist. Dr. A started The Crown Dental Center to undo that. The chairs face the window. The schedule leaves room to breathe. Nobody is rushed, talked down to, or sold something they don't need.

Behind the calm is serious clinical work — digital scanning, careful planning, and a small team that has time to actually know you. Premium care, without the cold edges.

Meet Dr. Jasmine (Yasmeen) Abdullh aka “Dr. A”

Founder and owner of The Crown Dental Center, founded in 2026, Dr. A earned her B.S. in Nutritional Science from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and her Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) from Southern Illinois University School of Dental Medicine.

She believes great dentistry goes beyond teeth — listening to each patient and building conservative, comprehensive plans so they leave informed and confident. Known for her gentle, detail-focused care, she builds lasting relationships with patients of all ages. Away from the office, she enjoys family, cooking, reading, and travel.

“My goal is simple: to care for every patient with honesty, compassion, and excellence. I believe everyone deserves a healthy smile they can feel proud of, and I'm honored to be part of that journey. I look forward to welcoming you and your family to The Crown Dental Center.”

— Dr. A

04Questions

Good to
know.

Still wondering about something? Call or text us with your questions.

Do you take my insurance, and how does payment work?
We work with PPO plans and file claims on your behalf. Every treatment plan comes with an itemized estimate before we begin, and for larger work we partner with third-party financing.
I'm a new patient — what happens at the first visit?
We're welcoming new patients of all ages. A first visit is a relaxed exam, digital scans, and a gentle cleaning if time allows — about an hour total. You'll leave with a clear, written plan and an honest sense of what's urgent versus what can wait. Call 219‑440‑1233 or text 219‑440‑1235 to book.
Something hurts — can I be seen today?
Same-day emergency appointments may be available on days the office is open, subject to availability. When the office is closed, contact the practice when it reopens. If the situation is life-threatening, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department.
Do you see children, and when should my child first come in?
We see children from the first tooth onward — the American Dental Association recommends a first visit by age 1, or within six months of the first tooth. Kids' visits are paced for small attention spans, and we're happy to book families together so it's one trip, not five.
Do you offer Invisalign, and how long does it take?
Yes — we provide Invisalign clear aligners with 3D scanning, a discreet, removable alternative to braces. Treatment timing varies by case; we start with a 3D scan so you can see the plan and an estimated timeline before you commit.
Do you offer oral sedation or help with dental anxiety?
Yes. We offer oral sedation options and an unhurried, calm approach made for anxious patients — easing dental anxiety is exactly why this practice was built.

Monday: Closed. Tuesday: 8:30 AM–4:00 PM Central. Wednesday: 8:30 AM–4:00 PM Central. Thursday: 8:30 AM–4:00 PM Central. Friday: By appointment only. Saturday: Closed. Sunday: Closed.

Dental emergency?
Here's what to do.

Call Us Today
  1. Knocked-out permanent toothPick the tooth up by the crown, not the root. If it is dirty, gently rinse it with milk or saline. If you can, place it back in the socket. If you cannot, keep it moist in milk or saline and seek dental care promptly.
  2. Knocked-out baby toothDo not put a baby tooth back in the socket. Keep it moist and bring the child and tooth to a dentist promptly.
  3. Severe toothacheRinse with warm salt water and floss gently to clear anything trapped. Cold compress on the cheek; never put aspirin directly on the gum.
  4. Swelling or abscessRinse with salt water and apply a cold compress. Spreading swelling, or trouble breathing or swallowing, is urgent — seek immediate care.
  5. Broken or chipped toothSave any pieces, rinse your mouth, and cover a sharp edge with dental wax or sugarless gum until we see you.
