Advantages of Same-Day Crowns

How would you feel if you broke a tooth just a day before your wedding or a business meeting? Don't panic! The right technology is here and your dentist could repair the crown in a single day. Multiple dental visits to place crowns are the things of the past as advanced digital technology can fabricate a crown in the same day.

Getting a Dental Crown on Your Tooth in a Single Appointment

A crown is a cap for damaged teeth. A crown is recommended for those with a large cavity or a cracked or weakened tooth. The dentist will examine the tooth’s location, the position of your gum tissue, and the color of the surrounding teeth while considering a dental crown. Let us have a look at the same-day crown procedure for tooth restoration.

• A dentist takes digital scans of your mouth
• Creates a dental crown with CEREC using those digital scans
• The custom-made crown is cemented into the right place.
