Same-Day Crowns are a revolutionary dental procedure that allows for the placement of a dental crown in one appointment. This means that you can receive a crown on the same day as your treatment, rather than having to return for a second appointment.
These crowns work by using CAD/CAM technology to create a crown for you. The crown is supported by a custom-milled titanium post.
Same-day crowns offer several benefits, such as:
Convenient
Same-day crowns allow patients to receive their permanent crown in just one visit. This can help patients avoid the temporary crown, which typically only lasts about 3-4 weeks.
Same-day crowns also eliminate the need to follow up with your dental office, saving time for the patient.
Same-day crowns, also called chair-side crowns, are a convenient option for many patients.
Improved Appearance
Same-day crowns are customized crowns that can be installed the same day as the patient’s initial consultation. The dentist will take impressions of the patient’s teeth, which will then be sent off to manufacture the crowns. The dentist will ensure that the crowns are the perfect fit before cementing them in place.
Long-lasting
Same-day crowns are durable and can last a long time. However, it can last even longer when patients maintain good oral health habits. For example, flossing and brushing twice a day can keep your natural teeth healthy and strong, which will also extend the life of your dental crown.
Saves Time
Same-day crowns save you time. They can be designed, fabricated, and placed all on the same day. This means that you won’t have to schedule a second appointment, and you can continue with your day.
Restores Function
When a tooth breaks, it can affect your ability to chew, speak, and smile normally. You may experience pain or discomfort when biting down or chewing. A broken tooth will also likely affect your self-confidence.
A dental crown provides support and stability for a broken tooth. The crown covers the entire visible part of the tooth, which restores its function and improves its aesthetic.
Protects Teeth
Same-day crowns protect teeth! These restorations are durable and allow for normal chewing and biting. They also help prevent future tooth decay.
