Same Day Dental Crowns: How is it Possible?

Dental crowns are a time-tested solution to restore a tooth that is badly decayed, infected or damaged. They are made to serve as a “dental cap” and encase all visible surfaces of the affected tooth.  In many cases, a crown save a tooth from extraction. While past methods of getting a dental crown involved messy dental impressions, cumbersome temporary crowns and multiple office visits, modern dental technology now offers a superior approach to dental crowns.

Family Smiles Dental is proud to offer state-of-the-art CEREC® crown technology in our Dallas office. With this innovative system, we can deliver you permanent crown in a single day!

How Do CEREC Crowns Work?

Your same day crown relies on the advanced technology of an on-site CEREC machine. The process begins with painless 3D images of your teeth to capture a custom model of your new crown. The same machine that can offer this digital creation can also fabricate the real crown in just 10 to 20 minutes. Once the crown is ready, the restoration will be permanently bonded to the tooth, and you can walk away with your new tooth restoration.

There is no need to wear a subpar temporary crown for two weeks while you wait on your permanent crown. Plus, the entire process is quicker, cleaner and more accurate. At Family Smiles Dental, you can trust your CEREC crown to be customized in shape, color and size so that it blends seamlessly within your smile.

Dental crowns are used to restore many different dental issues, including weak, broken or chipped teeth. They are also used to support a large filling, keep a bridge in place or address a cosmetic concern such as a misshapen or discolored tooth.
