Same day crowns are dental crowns that are designed and made in a single dental visit. They cover the complete surface of the tooth to improve the way the natural tooth works while restoring form, function, and aesthetics. We use the most advanced CAD/CAM dental technology so that your tooth can be restored in a single dental visit.
Our dentist may recommend same day crowns for you if you have:
• A badly decayed tooth
• A chipped, cracked, or broken tooth
• A tooth that has had a root canal treatment
• A misshapen tooth
• A badly discolored tooth
• A tooth with a large filling that needs additional support
Traditional crowns typically take at least two dental visits to complete, but single visit crowns are placed in just one. Your tooth is first prepared, and then the crown is designed, milled, and bonded to the tooth all in one appointment. You enjoy less chair time and a completely restored tooth without the discomfort of a temporary crown, and ultimately save on lab fees and appointment costs.
