What Are Same-Day Dental Crowns?
Dental crowns are durable, tooth-shaped restorations that cover or cap the visible surfaces of weak or damaged teeth, restoring their strength, form, and function. Same-day crowns are created in-house in a single appointment from a compressed CEREC e.max block. This material offers exceptional strength and resilience, while closely mimicking the translucency and appearance of your natural tooth enamel.
Why Would You Need a Dental Crown?
The following are some reasons Dr. Wytko may recommend a dental crown:
- To restore teeth with deep decay or those with large fillings and not much tooth structure remaining
- To strengthen chipped, damaged, broken, or cracked teeth, helping prevent further damage
- To protect teeth after root canal therapy, helping restore their strength and prevent their breakage
- To repair the length and strength of teeth severely worn from habitual grinding and clenching, a condition known as bruxism
- To close gaps or uneven spaces between your teeth
- To replace missing teeth by supporting fixed dental bridges or covering dental implants
- To enhance your smile by improving the size, color, length, shape, alignment, or overall appearance of teeth
What Is the Same-Day Dental Crown Process?
Dr. Wytko will prepare your affected tooth by removing some of its structure to accommodate your new restoration. Next, she will use our state-of-the-art intraoral scanner to capture digital impressions of your prepared tooth and the surrounding structures without the need for gooey or messy putty. Dr. Wytko will use computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) technology to design your virtual crown with exceptional accuracy and precision.
The next step is sending the virtual model of your crown to our in-house milling unit, which will create your new restoration from a biocompatible material that’s safe for your smile. When ready, Dr. Wytko will bond your new aesthetic crown to your prepared tooth and make any needed adjustments for a comfortable fit and optimal function.
Unlike traditional crowns, which typically require multiple appointments and the use of temporary restorations while your new crowns are being created, our same-day restorations will allow you to leave our office with a brand-new, healthy, and beautiful smile.
