When you need a dental crown, the traditional process can take multiple appointments and weeks of waiting. But with modern technology, you now have a faster, more convenient option—same-day crowns. At Village Dental of Milford, our dentists in Milford, MI, are proud to offer CEREC same-day crowns that restore your smile in just one visit.
Here are five compelling reasons to consider this innovative treatment.
1. Convenience in a Single Appointment
One of the biggest benefits of same-day crowns is the convenience. Traditional crowns typically require two or more visits—one for impressions and a temporary crown, and another to place the final crown. With same-day crowns, the entire process is completed in a single appointment. That means fewer trips to the dentist and less time away from your daily routine.
Same-day crowns are especially helpful if you have a busy schedule or live far from the dental office, making it easier to fit essential dental care into your life.
2. No Temporary Crowns Needed
When you choose a traditional crown, you’ll likely wear a temporary crown for a week or two while your permanent one is being made at a lab. These temporaries can be uncomfortable, may not fit perfectly, and can even fall off. CEREC same-day crowns eliminate the need for a temporary crown altogether, reducing the risk of complications and providing immediate protection for your tooth.
Patients often appreciate skipping this step, as it avoids potential sensitivity, awkward bite alignment, and the hassle of returning for another appointment.
3. Precise Digital Impressions
Same-day crown technology uses advanced digital imaging instead of traditional impression materials. This means no messy trays and no gagging. Digital impressions are more precise, which allows for a better-fitting and more comfortable crown. The crown is designed on a computer and milled from a high-quality ceramic block, ensuring a precise fit tailored to your bite and smile.
This technology enhances both the accuracy and efficiency of the process, resulting in a more predictable and satisfying outcome.
4. Durable and Natural-Looking Results
Same-day crowns are made from strong, tooth-colored ceramic that blends beautifully with your natural teeth. The material is highly durable and built to withstand the forces of chewing, making it an excellent long-term solution. You don’t have to sacrifice aesthetics for speed—these crowns look and feel just like your natural teeth.
5. Preserves More of Your Natural Tooth
Due to the precision involved in the digital design and milling process, same-day dental crowns often require less removal of your natural tooth structure compared to traditional crowns. Preserving more of your natural tooth is beneficial for your long-term oral health and increases the stability of your restoration.
