It’s a faster, easier process that skips the wait and gives you the lasting results you need. Call today to schedule your same-day crown visit.
The Role Of Digital Scanning In Crown Design
Instead of using old-fashioned impression trays, your appointment starts with a digital scan that captures detailed 3D images of your tooth. The scanner is fast and comfortable, helping your dental care provider design a precise fit without the mess. It only takes a few minutes.
- Mess-free process: Digital scans replace traditional molds for a cleaner experience.
- Improved accuracy: High-resolution images help create a crown with better fit and contour.
- Comfortable experience: No trays, no putty, and no gagging during impressions.
- Faster start: Scans are processed instantly to move your treatment forward quickly.
CAD/CAM Technology In Dentistry
Once your scan is complete, advanced CAD/CAM software is used to design a crown that looks and feels like your natural tooth. This lets your provider fine-tune the shape, fit, and bite for a seamless finish. Everything is customized just for you.
- Personalized design: Each crown is digitally shaped to match your specific tooth structure.
- On-the-spot adjustments: Real-time edits ensure the crown fits your bite properly.
- Accurate results: Minimizes the risk of discomfort or the need for corrections later.
- Seamless appearance: Crown is crafted to blend naturally with nearby teeth.
In-Office Milling & Same-Day Fabrication
After your design is finalized, an in-office milling machine creates the crown from a ceramic block while you relax in the chair. There’s no need to send anything to a lab or come back another day. It’s all done during your visit.
- Immediate results: Your permanent crown is created and placed in the same visit.
- Durable materials: Crafted from long-lasting ceramic that handles daily wear.
- No outside lab: Keeps everything under one roof for faster, more efficient care.
