What to Expect From Same-Day Crowns

Evaluation and Tooth Preparation
Your journey begins with a thorough evaluation by Dr. Applegate or Dr. Lee at Dental Care Independence. We’ll examine your tooth and discuss your needs. If a crown is right for you, the process will begin with trimming your tooth to prepare it for your new crown. Then, we will use advanced 3D imaging technology to capture precise digital impressions. This ensures your crown fits perfectly and feels comfortable.
Crown Design and Fabrication
After your tooth has been trimmed and prepared, we will use state-of-the-art CEREC technology to design and mill your custom crown on-site while you relax. The highly accurate process creates a restoration shaped and shaded to match your natural teeth, ensuring both comfort and aesthetics. Best of all, there’s no need for temporary crowns or repeat visits!
Placement and Final Adjustments
Once your new crown is ready, it’s carefully bonded to your tooth with precision. We’ll make any final adjustments to ensure your bite feels just right. With proper care, your same-day crown will not only restore your smile but also provide lasting strength and function you can count on.
