What are One Day Crowns?

One day crowns are a type of restoration that can be made and placed in a single day. We use the most advanced 3D technology and high-grade ceramics to create a strong, beautiful restoration that can last for many years, and we do it in just one dental visit.
 
If you are a candidate for a dental crown, our dentist will evaluate the tooth in question and make any necessary adjustments. Decay will be cleaned away, and the tooth will be shaped. If a root canal is needed first, that may be performed at a separate appointment, or it may be able to be done at the same time. A local anesthetic will be used to keep you comfortable during this process, but because the crown will be applied at the same visit, you will only need one shot.
 
We then take a digital impression of your prepared tooth. This impression is used by our system to design your crown. We customize each aspect of your restoration to ensure it is an exact match to your teeth. The design is sent to the milling unit, which creates the crown using a single block of porcelain for maximum strength and durability.
