What Are Same Day Crowns?

A crown is a custom-made "cap" placed over a damaged or decayed tooth to restore its shape, strength, and appearance. Traditionally, crowns require multiple visits and a temporary crown in between. But with same-day crowns, we use advanced technology to create and place your crown in just a single appointment. Using state-of-the-art CEREC technology, we take digital impressions of your tooth, design your crown with precision, and create it right here in our office. There's no need to wait weeks for an outsourced provider. The result? A beautifully restored tooth that looks and feels like your natural teeth within hours.

The Benefits of Same Day Crowns at Espire Dental Northwest OKC

Same-day crowns offer several advantages, especially for patients who want to minimize the number of visits to the dentist without sacrificing quality. Here's why they might be the right fit for you:

  1. Speed & Convenience:
    You don't have to wait for weeks or return for a second appointment. With same-day crowns, your tooth is restored in just one visit, making it ideal for busy schedules.
  2. No Temporary Crowns:
    Temporary crowns can sometimes be uncomfortable or fall out while you wait to process the traditionally made crown. With same-day crowns, you skip the temporary fix and immediately get your final solution.
  3. Precision Fit:
    Using digital imaging and CEREC technology, we create crowns with exceptional accuracy. This leads to a better fit, more comfort, and a natural look that blends seamlessly with your other teeth.
  4. Durability & Aesthetics:
    Same-day crowns are made from high-quality ceramic material, which is durable and designed to match the shade and contour of your natural teeth. You won't even notice the difference!
  5. Comfortable & Efficient Process:
    Forget about the messy putty impressions—same-day crowns rely on digital scans, which are quick and far more comfortable for patients. The entire process is streamlined, allowing you to enjoy a stress-free experience.

When is a Same Day Crown Necessary?

We only believe in performing speedy dental procedures when they benefit the patient. They are a fantastic option for when the situation demands quick restoration. Here are a few scenarios where we might recommend a same-day crown:

  • Cracked or chipped tooth that needs immediate protection
  • A tooth with extensive decay that a filling can't restore
  • An old, failing crown that requires immediate replacement
  • Teeth that have undergone root canal therapy and needs structural reinforcement

In these cases, time is of the essence to protect the remaining healthy tooth structure and avoid discomfort or further damage. Dr. Greg Stewart, a local OKC favorite, ensures that we only recommend same-day crowns when they are the right choice for your dental health.

How long do same-day crowns last?

Our same-day crowns are durable and long-lasting. With proper care, they can last anywhere from 10 to 15 years or more, just like traditional crowns.

Are same-day crowns as strong as lab-made crowns?

Yes! Same-day crowns are made from high-quality ceramic, providing both strength and aesthetics. They are just as durable and effective as crowns made in a lab.

Does getting a same-day crown hurt?

Not at all. We ensure you're comfortable throughout the process, and our advanced technology allows for a pain-free experience. We also offer sedation options for patients who are anxious.

How long does the procedure take?

The entire same-day crown appointment, including the digital impressions, design, milling, and placement, should take about two hours from start to finish.

What happens if my crown doesn't fit right?

We ensure a precise fit before permanently bonding the crown. However, if any adjustments are needed, we make them immediately, ensuring a comfortable and secure result.

Are same-day crowns covered by insurance?

Coverage varies depending on your dental insurance plan. Our team will work with you to understand your benefits and ensure you receive the best care possible.
