Accidents, cavities, erosion, and several other factors can leave your tooth brittle and require CEREC® same day teeth. Thanks to our in-lab technology, we can design and manufacture a perfectly fitting crown in less than an hour, making the process of getting dental restorations easy, accurate, and, more importantly, less time-consuming!

How Are Same Day Crowns Made?
When manufacturing a dental crown, a precise fit is crucial to prevent any remaining spaces between your teeth where bacteria can build up. For that reason, crowns used to be crafted in a separate, specialized lab.
This involved getting an accurate model of your smile, sending it to the lab, and then waiting several weeks before the final restoration could be placed. Same day crowns make getting a crown restoration an easy and quick affair.
After preparing your tooth, we use a digital scan to take a digital impression of your tooth. Using CEREC® CAD software, we will make a customized digital design of your crown. Then, the milling machine at our in-house lab will craft a perfectly fitting restoration.
The best part is that the manufacturing process lasts only 40 minutes. During this time, you can leave the office or stay and enjoy our several televisions made available for your entertainment.
Once the crown is made, we bond it to your tooth, restoring it to optimal condition!
Who’s a Candidate for Same Day Crowns?
Crowns are ideal restorations for patients with damaged or brittle teeth. After a large cavity is removed or a root canal treatment is performed, the tooth may be too weakened to be fully restored with a simple filling.
Crafting a customized crown can provide the extra support your teeth need to eat, speak, and perform all of their functions correctly. Similarly, patients who grind their teeth often need a crown to restore a tooth from all the wear and tear. People with fractured teeth due to an accident can restore the health of their smile with our same day crowns, too.
