Thanks to advanced technology like CEREC® (Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics), YES, it is possible to get a dental crown in just one day!
The process for traditional crowns typically requires multiple visits, impressions, molds, and then a waiting period for fabrication in a dental lab. By leveraging advanced digital imaging and design and precise 3-D printing technologies, an increasing number of dental practices, like Alum Hills Dental, condense this multi-step process into a single visit to your dentist’s office.
How Are Same-Day Crowns Possible?
The process for same-day dental crowns is streamlined and efficient. First, using advanced digital imaging, your dentist scans your mouth to create an intricate 3-D model. This maximizes precision and eliminates the need for messy impressions. Next, using computer-aided design (CAD) software, a dental crown is customized to fit seamlessly in your smile and bite. Once designed, the crown is milled from solid ceramic using high-precision machinery, typically in under an hour.
The result is a strong, durable, natural-looking crown that restores the form, feel, function, and aesthetics of a natural tooth — in just one appointment!
