When a tooth is damaged or weakened, restoring it quickly is essential for both comfort and function. At Rocky Ridge Dental Associates, we offer same-day dental crowns using advanced technology to restore your smile in just one visit. This efficient solution eliminates the need for multiple appointments and temporary crowns, making it ideal for busy patients who want quality care without delay.
Traditional crowns typically require at least two visits and a waiting period while the crown is fabricated in an outside lab. Same-day crowns, however, are designed, milled and placed on-site using digital impressions and CEREC technology. The result is a custom crown that fits precisely and looks natural—all completed in a single day.
Fast, Comfortable and Precise Care
Our dentists and team understand that your time is valuable. That is why we use advanced digital scanning instead of traditional impressions to design your crown. These 3D images help us create a restoration that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing. Once designed, your crown is crafted from strong, tooth-colored material right in our office.
Patients choose same-day crowns for several reasons:
- Restores damaged or decayed teeth in a single appointment
- No need for temporary crowns or follow-up placement visits
- Digital impressions for improved accuracy and comfort
- Natural-looking materials that match surrounding teeth
- Saves time without compromising quality
From the moment you arrive, our goal is to make your experience as smooth and stress-free as possible. The same-day crown process is efficient and eliminates the need for goopy impression materials or long waiting periods between appointments. Most patients are amazed by how quickly they can get back to smiling, eating and speaking with confidence.
