Unlike conventional crown procedures, which require multiple appointments, temporary restorations, and weeks of waiting for lab-made crowns, same day crowns are created in-office using systems like CEREC. The process begins with a digital scan of the patient’s tooth, eliminating the need for uncomfortable traditional impressions. The dentist then designs the crown digitally, and an in-office milling machine crafts it from a block of high-quality ceramic or composite material within minutes. This allows the crown to be fitted, bonded, and polished during the same appointment, often in under two hours, offering unmatched convenience for patients.
The advantages of same day crowns are significant, particularly for patients seeking efficiency and comfort. These crowns are highly precise, as digital scanning and design ensure an accurate fit, improving both aesthetics and functionality. By bypassing temporary crowns, patients avoid issues like sensitivity, discomfort, or the risk of temporaries dislodging. The materials used, such as porcelain or zirconia, are durable and mimic the natural appearance of teeth, blending seamlessly with the patient’s smile. Additionally, same day crowns can reduce overall treatment costs by eliminating multiple visits and lab fees, making them appealing for those with busy schedules or dental anxiety who prefer fewer trips to the dentist.
Despite their benefits, same day crowns have some limitations. Not all dental practices offer this service, as it requires significant investment in CAD/CAM equipment and specialized training. Complex cases, such as those involving multiple teeth or requiring additional procedures like root canals or implants, may still necessitate multiple visits. The longevity of same day crowns depends on proper oral hygiene and regular dental care, similar to traditional crowns. While the upfront cost may be higher at some practices due to the technology involved, the time savings and improved patient experience often outweigh this drawback. As dental technology advances, same day crowns continue to gain popularity, providing a fast, reliable solution for restoring damaged or decayed teeth.
