Our practice likes new technology, especially when it enhances the dental care that we can provide to our patients. Because of this we now offer same day crowns.

Same day crowns are a terrific brand-new technology where lovely all porcelain crowns are produced within two hours of the prep work of a tooth for a crown. The old process was where the dental practitioner prepared your tooth for a crown, took an impression and sent this impression to a lab to have the crown built. Throughout this time the patient would have to wear a temporary plastic crown that was always uncomfortable.

Today, our equipment allows us to scan the tooth preparation and mill out a brand-new all porcelain crown within two hours. This means that the client leaves our practice with the permanent crown that day!

• There's no need to wear a short-term crown for two or three weeks.


• There's no need to return once again to have the same day crown inserted on your tooth.


• There is no need to be numbed up again! No more needles!

Our practice chooses same day crowns due to the fact that it is made of stunning material and also incredibly durable.

If your interested in a same day crown, please give our office a call.

Today's Conversation Is About:

Dental Crowns

A crown (or cap) is a covering that covers the entire tooth surface area restoring it to its original shape and size. A crown protects and reinforces the tooth structure providing the tooth a longer life span than it would have if restored by fillings or other kinds of restorations.

Crowns are full coverage restorations that are used to cover a tooth that is most likely to break, or is too broken down to be recovered with a filling. They are most typically done after root canal treatments, or when a big filling breaks. The larger the hole made by a cavity that has to be treated, the more likely a crown will be required. Even after a filling is put in a huge cavity, a tooth is more likely to break. Bear in mind that the jaw muscles are the strongest in the body. Teeth go through remarkable pressures. Crowns sit over the weakened tooth, providing strength and protecting the tooth against damage. A broken or cracked tooth is a much more severe matter and far more difficult to treat. Crowns prevent this, along with producing a good smile.

It takes 2 visits to restore a tooth with a crown. In the very first visit any decay is removed from the tooth and it is shaped to accept the crown. Then an impression is made of the tooth for use in making a crown. In between the two visits the crown is made, typically of high-strength porcelain over gold alloy, all ceramic product, or gold. A short-term crown is used during this time. In the 2nd visit this short-term crown is removed. Then the {permanent crown is adjusted as needed and then cemented in place.

What Does Getting A Crown Involve?

A crown procedure generally requires 2 appointments. Your first appointment will include taking impressions that will be utilized to create your customized crown. A mold will also be used to develop a temporary crown which will remain on your tooth for roughly 2 weeks up until your new crown is made by a dental lab.

While the tooth is numb, the dental practitioner will prepare the tooth by removing any decay and shaping the surface area to properly fit the crown. When these details are accomplished, your temporary crown will be put with short-term cement and your bite will be checked to guarantee you are biting appropriately.

At your second visit your short-term crown will be removed, the tooth will be cleaned, and your new crown will be carefully placed to ensure the spacing and bite are precise.

You will be given care guidelines and encouraged to have regular dental visits to inspect your crown. As always, correct oral hygiene will help extend the life of your brand-new crown.
