Same-Day Crowns (CEREC)

If you're in need of a dental crown, you might wonder if you can get it fast without sacrificing quality.

What Are Same-Day Crowns?
Same-day crowns are custom-made dental crowns created and placed during a single dental appointment. Unlike traditional crowns that require multiple visits over a few weeks, CEREC technology enables instant fabrication and placement, so you leave with a fully restored tooth in just a few hours.

The CEREC Process Explained
Our same-day crowns procedure involves several straightforward steps:
1. *Initial Examination*: We assess your tooth and determine if a crown is needed.
2. *Digital Scanning*: We use a handheld device to create a 3D digital impression of your tooth. This method is more comfortable than traditional molds and provides highly accurate data.
3. *Design*: Using advanced software, we craft a custom crown that fits perfectly and matches your natural tooth color.
4. *Fabrication*: The CEREC machine mills your crown onsite from a block of ceramic material. This process typically takes around 15-20 minutes.
5. *Placement*: We ensure the crown fits properly, then bond it securely to your tooth, finalizing your restoration in a single visit.
Is a Same-Day Crown Right for You?
Same-day crowns are ideal for patients who have:
A broken or cracked tooth needing urgent repair
Decayed teeth requiring reinforcement
Esthetic concerns with front or visible teeth
Desire to minimize dental visits and time away from work or daily routines
However, certain complex cases may still require traditional crowns or additional procedures. We will evaluate your specific needs during your consultation to recommend the best solution.
