Same-Day Crowns: How It Works

Same-day crowns how it works dental infographicSame-day crowns allow many damaged teeth to be restored in a single visit using digital dentistry. Instead of traditional impressions, temporary crowns, and a second appointment, many cases can be scanned, designed, made, and bonded the same day.

Every tooth is different, but same-day crown technology can make treatment more efficient and comfortable when it is the right option.

How same-day crowns work

The process usually includes:

– Examining the tooth and confirming that a crown is appropriate
– Preparing the damaged or weakened tooth
– Taking a digital scan instead of a traditional impression
– Designing the crown digitally
– Milling the crown in the office
– Bonding the final crown and checking the bite

Benefits of same-day crowns

Same-day crowns can reduce the number of visits, avoid temporary crowns in many cases, and allow the final restoration to be completed efficiently. Digital scanning also helps create a precise fit and a natural shape.

When is a crown recommended?

A crown may be recommended for a cracked tooth, large failing filling, weakened tooth, broken cusp, or tooth that needs stronger long-term protection than a filling can provide.
