Welcome to the future of restorative dental care — where convenience meets precision in the form of same-day crowns!

As dentists, we believe that your smile deserves royal treatment provided in record time. Today’s fast-paced world demands efficient yet quick solutions for your dental needs. Now imagine getting a dental crown that will not only restore your smile, tooth strength, and functionality but will do so in a single day.

Bid goodbye to multiple appointments and waiting periods and say hello to the revolutionary same-day crown treatment at Brooklyn Blvd. Dental. Read on to discover a conveniently faster and more effective way to restore your smile.

What are Same-Day Crowns?

Same-day crowns, also known as single-visit crowns, are just like traditional crowns. The only difference is that these single-visit crowns offer you same-day restorations. This means that the crown is designed, fabricated, and placed on your tooth, all in a single day.

Single-visit crowns are made using CEREC (Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramic) Technology. Dentists use ceramic or composite resin to create these crowns, which are then fitted on the tooth using a special adhesive.

What is the Difference Between Same-Day Crowns & Traditional Crowns?

Crowns fitted in a single appointment and traditional crowns both aim to restore your smile and oral functionality. There are, however, a few key differences between the two.

Top 5 Advantages of Same-Day Crowns

Time Efficiency

Time efficiency is one of the top advantages when it comes to single-visit crowns. From the digital impressions to the crown placement, the entire process is completed in one single visit. This helps in providing patients with immediate restoration.

No Temporary Crowns

Traditional crown procedures often involve the placement of temporary crowns while patients wait for the final restoration. Single-visit crowns reduce patient inconvenience and potential discomfort associated with temporary crowns.

Precision and Accuracy

Same-day restoration crowns are created using advanced CAD/CAM technology. This allows dentists to capture highly accurate digital impressions and precise customization of the crown. The precision and accuracy of this creation process lead to optimal fit, functionality, and aesthetic results, enhancing the overall quality of the restoration.

Convenience for Patients

No one likes taking time out of their hectic schedule for multiple dental appointments. The streamlined process of single-visit crowns provides a highly efficient solution for patients seeking dental treatments without appointments stretched over several weeks.

Minimized Discomfort

Because the entire procedure of single-visit crowns is completed in one sitting, patients can save themselves from prolonged discomfort associated with lengthy dental treatments. This means no more temporary crowns or waiting for a permanent crown to eat your favorite foods. The immediate restoration gives you a much more comfortable and efficient experience.

How Are Same-Day Crowns Created?

Single-visit crowns are created using CEREC technology, at the heart of which lies Computer-Aided Design (CAD) and Computer-Aided Manufacturing (CAM).

With the CEREC technology, dentists use an infrared camera to capture all the precise details of a patient's tooth.
The CAD software helps in capturing 3D images of the tooth.
Once the digital imaging is complete, CAM technology comes into the picture to mill the crown based on the details captured by the CAD software.
The milling process lasts for approximately 20 minutes. During this time, the CAM software replicates the details of the chewing surface in the tooth.
The dentists choose a color as close to the patient's natural tooth as possible.
Once it is complete, the crown is polished to blend in with the rest of the teeth.
Dentists may also glaze the crown before it is bonded to create a more natural appearance.

Are You a Candidate for Same-Day Crowns?

A good candidate for single-visit crowns would typically include patients who:

Have sufficient tooth structure to support the crown
Need single-tooth restoration that does not require extensive dental work
Have moderate to minor dental issues such as small cavities, tooth decay, or fractures
Have good oral health
Do not require extensive periodontal treatment or multiple dental procedures before the crown placement

What to Expect From the Same-Day Crown Procedure

Just like a traditional crown, a single-visit crown is installed to fit your entire tooth and restore its function, shape, and appearance. However, unlike traditional crowns that are fitted in multiple appointments, same-day restoration crowns are fitted in a single appointment.

Here is what you can expect from the procedure of a single-visit crown installation.

The dentist will begin by numbing and prepping your tooth. This step involves removing any decay that has damaged the tooth structure. They will also reduce the size of the tooth to make space for the crown fitting.
Your dentist will then take impressions of your tooth, but rather than using uncomfortable putty to do so, they will take the impression by digitally scanning your teeth.
These impressions are then loaded onto a computer, which will immediately begin designing a crown that can fit your tooth perfectly.
The next step involves the CEREC machine, which will create the crown out of strong and durable ceramic that will match the color of your existing smile.
The final step is fitting the crown on your tooth with a special adhesive.

That is how you can get your smile restored in one day through 5 simple steps!

How Much Do Same-Day Crowns Cost?

The average price of single-visit crowns ranges between $850 to $2500 per tooth.

The final cost of same-day restoration crowns can only be determined by taking into account factors such as the material used to create the crown, the location of the dental clinic, state-of-the-art technology, and how much coverage your insurance will provide for the procedure.
