How is a Same Day CEREC Crown made?
At McAdams Dental, your same day crown is custom fabricated using the CEREC CAD/CAM milling system. The tooth is prepared for a crown and we use a high quality camera to take a 3D digital scan of your teeth (No more messy impression material that sits in your mouth for 5 minutes). We then use our computer assisted design tools to customize your crown to the proper shape and contour and make sure that it will be comfortable and healthy for your bite. The digital design is then sent to our milling machine that will process your same day crown in minutes. After trying in and confirming the proper fit and comfort of the crown, the same day crown is then polished, glazed and placed in our in office furnace for finalization. After cooling, your same day crown is cemented into your mouth and ready for action.
Do you still make traditional crowns at McAdams Dental?
Sure we do! Every situation requires an exam and careful consideration of the best materials. At times, we may recommend a crown without same day crown technology. There are certain times when the best option is a gold crown, or times when a cosmetic crown may require a lab for custom color matching.
Traditional crowns are processed in multiple appointments. Patients will be placed in a temporary crown for about 2 weeks while the dental lab makes their crown. It is important for patients to be careful to not eat anything hard, sticky or chewy on their temporary crown, or risk it breaking or coming loose, leading to more appointments and discomfort. Patients typically also will need to be numb for multiple visits, including when the final crown is delivered after two weeks.
If you are looking for a dentist using the latest technology to make your visits as easy as possible, give us a call to set up a consultation. We would love to help you achieve a comfortable and beautiful smile of your dreams.
