What are Same-day Crowns?

Same-day crowns, or CEREC crowns, are an advanced and quick option for those looking to replace a tooth in a single visit instead of the multiple visits for regular dental crowns. CEREC is an abbreviation for Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics. A dental CEREC machine uses advanced technology to create the crown while you wait. Dr. Jose Hernandez will not need to send the crown impressions to a dental laboratory. The CEREC machine in Dr. Jose Hernandez’s office will create the crown from the 3D digital scan data of your teeth that a camera takes during the visit. This saves not only weeks but also the additional expenses of a laboratory-made crown.

Who Needs Same-Day Dental Crowns?

Same-day crowns are primarily for people who require dental crowns but cannot resist the time it takes to have them traditionally made. Patients needing urgent crowns will appreciate the convenience of same-day crowns. They are also an excellent choice for those still deciding about the appearance of their dental crown. With same-day crowns, you can watch the progress of your dental crown creation and provide feedback to your dentist if necessary.

What to Expect During Same-Day Crowns Treatment

The process of same-day crowns is straightforward, and it takes a few hours to complete. First, Dr. Jose Hernandez will examine your teeth and take a digital scan, eliminating the need for goopy impression material. We will then prepare your tooth for the crown placement, and the CEREC machine will use its technology to design and create the custom-made crown digitally. Once your crown is made, it will be placed and fitted onto your tooth.

Benefits of Same-Day Crowns

• Convenience: One of the significant benefits of same-day crowns is that they provide the convenience that traditional crowns do not. Instead of waiting weeks between appointments and wearing temporary crowns, same-day crowns offer a swift and straightforward solution. 
• Time-Saving: Same-day crowns are perfect for those with busy schedules, as they can fit into your routine without taking extended time off for multiple appointments. 
• Customizable: Same-day crowns offer the same level of customization as traditional crowns, as they can match the exact shape and color of your natural teeth. This means you can have a restoration that fits seamlessly into your smile without anyone knowing it isn’t your natural tooth. 
• Less Discomfort: Same-day crowns involve less drilling and are less invasive than traditional crown procedures, with less discomfort and less time spent in the dental chair. 
• Durable: Same-day crowns use the latest materials and technology to create durable, long-lasting restorations. They’re strong enough to withstand the everyday wear and tear of biting and chewing, so you don’t have to worry about them breaking or coming loose.
