The Process of Getting a CEREC Same-Day Dental Crown

CEREC same-day dental crown appointments are typically completed within two to three hours. Our team will begin by preparing your affected tooth to fit the crown by shaving a small layer of enamel from it. This will allow the restoration to lay flush with your surrounding teeth. We’ll then capture a digital impression of the tooth that we can send to our in-house milling machine, where it will create a 3D digital blueprint of your crown. Once the measurements and details on the design are confirmed, it will carve your restoration from a solid block of porcelain. After the crown is completed, we’ll secure it atop your prepared tooth to provide it with long-lasting protection and additional strength.
