Crowns in Just One Visit

Same-Day Crowns: Crowns in Just One Visit

When her dentist was able to use digital technology to provide a crown for her in just one appointment, it gave Anna a whole new outlook on how fast and convenient dentistry can be. She’s thrilled to have received the same superb quality care and results in only one visit.

When my dentist told me I needed a crown, I was concerned about the time I’d have to take off from work. I was extremely happy when I was advised that I’d get my crown that same day without missing any additional work.
– Anna, Same-Day Crown Patient

For patients in need of a dental crown, same-day dentistry makes it possible to receive the same high-quality treatment as always — in fewer appointments, and with less hassle and discomfort than ever before.

  • Receive natural-looking, long-lasting crowns manufactured same-day in the dental office
  • Enjoy the clean, rapid process of digital intraoral scanning instead of impressions
  • Skip the temporary crowns that sometimes don’t last, and avoid weeks of waiting for your follow-up appointment — do it all in a day!

TRADITIONAL PROCESS OF RECEIVING A DENTAL CROWN:

Appointment 1:

  • The tooth is prepared, impressions are taken with putty material and metal trays, and a temporary crown is placed.

Wait Time: 5 Days to 2 Weeks

  • The patient wears a temporary while final crown is manufactured.

Appointment 2:

  • The patient returns for final placement of completed crown.

DIGITAL SAME-DAY METHOD OF RECEIVING A DENTAL CROWN:

  • The tooth is prepared, and impressions are taken with a digital wand.
  • Same day: The final crown is manufactured and placed by your dentist.
