If you’ve ever needed a dental crown, you know the traditional process can be a bit of a hassle. Multiple appointments, temporary crowns, and weeks of waiting for a lab to finish your final restoration. Fortunately, Oak Tree Dental offers a more convenient solution: same-day crowns in Sebastopol using advanced CEREC® technology.
Whether you’ve cracked a tooth, have a large cavity, or need to replace an old crown, we can restore your smile in just one visit.
What Are Same-Day Crowns?
Same-day crowns are custom-made ceramic restorations that are designed, milled, and placed all during a single appointment. Using CEREC (Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics), our team can scan your tooth digitally, design your crown with precision software, and create it right here in the office. No need for messy impressions or temporary crowns.
Benefits of Same-Day Crowns
- One Visit, One Crown: No follow-up appointments required. You’ll walk out with your permanent crown the same day.
- No Temporary Crowns: Avoid the discomfort and inconvenience of wearing a temporary crown while waiting for a lab to finish your restoration.
- Digital Accuracy: CEREC uses digital imaging for more precise fit and better long-term results.
- Natural Appearance: The high-quality ceramic material is color-matched to your smile for a seamless look.
- Durability You Can Trust: CEREC crowns are designed to withstand daily wear and tear, just like traditional crowns.
What to Expect During Your Visit
Getting a same-day crown is simple and efficient:
- Digital Scan – We’ll start by taking a 3D digital scan of your teeth and gums without gooey impression trays. These precision scans enable us to create an accurate computer model and even capture the shade of your teeth and color of your gums.
- Custom Design – Using advanced CAD/CAM software, we’ll design your custom dental crown your bite and match your natural tooth shape and color.
- In-Office Milling – We use a strong ceramic block to mill your crown while you relax.
- Crown Placement – We’ll bond your new crown in place, make any minor adjustments for a perfect fit, and you’re done!
Most visits take about two hours from start to finish, and you’ll leave with a fully functional, beautiful restoration. We’ll stick with you for ongoing maintenance to be sure your restoration stays healthy for as long as possible.
Are Same-Day Crowns Right for Everyone?
Same-day crowns are an excellent option for many patients, but they’re not always the best solution in every case. If you have complex bite issues or need work on a back molar with very little remaining structure, we might recommend a different approach.
During your consultation, we’ll walk you through all your options and help you make the choice that’s best for your long-term oral health.
