Same-day crowns, also known as CEREC crowns, are a modern dental solution that allows for the restoration of damaged or decayed teeth in just one visit to the dentist. Unlike traditional crowns that require multiple appointments and waiting times, same-day crowns offer a convenient alternative.
With same-day crowns, you no longer have to endure weeks wearing temporary restorations or making repeated visits to complete treatment. Instead, you can enjoy restored oral health and a beautiful smile, all within a single appointment!
The first step is digital scanning. Instead of using messy impression materials, our dentist will use an intraoral scanner to capture detailed images of your teeth and gums. This technology ensures precise measurements and eliminates the discomfort associated with traditional impressions. Once the scan is complete, the information is sent to a computer-aided design (CAD) software program. Using this technology, your dentist can create a virtual model of your tooth restoration right before your eyes. This allows for customization and adjustments to ensure optimal fit and aesthetics.
Next comes the milling stage. With fastmill.io, we can deliver crown in a single visit. The CAD file is transferred to a milling machine that uses high-quality ceramic material to carve out the crown or bridge from a solid block. This process typically takes about 15 minutes, allowing you to receive your restoration on the same day as your appointment! After milling, any necessary finishing touches are made by hand before polishing and glazing to give it its final shine. The result? A strong, durable crown that blends seamlessly with your natural teeth.
Same-day crowns offer numerous benefits compared to traditional crown procedures:
