Dental crowns are designed to protect and restore a weakened tooth. They traditionally require two appointments, but new and improved dental technology has made same-day crowns an option for many dental practices. Now patients can receive a beautiful crown in just one day!
Same-Day Crowns vs. Traditional Crowns
Traditional crowns typically require more than one appointment. The first one requires taking an impression of your mouth, prepping the tooth, and leaving with a temporary restoration until your permanent one is ready.
During a same-day crown treatment, your dentist will use CAD/CAM technology to create your permanent crown right there in the office. It doesn’t require an impression, and patients generally leave with their new smile within an hour.
What are the Benefits of Same-Day Crowns?
Besides giving you a beautifully restored smile in one appointment, same-day crowns also offer patients many other benefits. Below are some of the advantages you’ll notice when you choose to get a same-day crown over a traditional one.
- Eliminates the need for putty and temporary crowns
- Exact fit
- Saves time with a single visit
- Sturdy and reliable
Caring for Your Crown
After getting your same-day crown, avoid crunchy or sticky foods for the first 24 hours. This will ensure that it’s fully bonded. Patients may also experience tooth sensitivity after treatment, and extreme heat or cold may be bothersome. Keep your teeth healthy by brushing and flossing daily, and don’t forget to schedule regular dental visits!
