Farragut Same-Day Dental Crowns

Dental Crowns in One Appointment

About CEREC Crowns

CEREC technology is a specialized type of 3D CAD/CAM (computer-assisted design/manufacturing) dentistry. The process involves using a special 3D handheld scanner to take images of your damaged tooth. This image is then uploaded to a specialized milling machine. Dr. Luis or Dr. Tori will use advanced software to design your dental crown, then load a block of porcelain into the milling machine where it will be manufactured according to their design. This technology makes it possible to build a crown and place it in just one quick appointment.

How it Helps

The Benefits of Same-Day Crowns

Immediate Treatment

With a CEREC crown, you can restore a damaged or decayed tooth in just a single 1-2 hour appointment at our office. This means you can get relief from your pain and discomfort right away and restore your smile quickly.

No Temporary Crown Required

WIth traditional crowns, patients need to wait 2-3 weeks to receive their permanent crown from a third-party lab. You’d also need to wear a bulky temporary crown in the meantime. With CEREC, there’s no wait and no temporary crown!

Enhanced Convenience

CEREC technology makes it possible to repair and restore your smile even if you have a busy schedule. Avoiding multiple appointments means that you won’t have to call out of work, miss school, or deal with any inconvenience!

No Dental Impressions

Instead of goopy, uncomfortable dental impressions, we use a 3D hand-held scanner to take images of your tooth, which is faster and more comfortable than traditional impressions. 

Good Candidates for

CEREC Same-Day Crowns

CEREC same-day crowns are just as versatile as traditional crowns. If you can be treated with a traditional crown, a CEREC crown is typically a good alternative. The only exception is if your tooth is broken below the gum line. The CEREC scanner cannot capture images of your tooth below the gumline, so in this instance, it would be best to get a traditional, lab-made crown.

Durability

How Long Do CEREC Crowns Last?

CEREC crowns last just as long as lab-made crowns.

If you care for your crown with proper oral hygiene, you can expect your CEREC crown to last just as long as a lab-made crown. Most CEREC crowns will easily last 10-15 years as long as you brush and floss properly, and see the team at Confident Smiles & Implants for a cleaning and oral exam every six months.

Cost & Payment

CEREC Same-Day Crowns

The cost of a CEREC crown varies for each patient and is based on your case.

Without a consultation, it is difficult to provide you with an accurate estimate for the cost of your treatment. This is because there are a variety of different factors that may affect the cost of your crown. However, CEREC crowns are similar in price to traditional lab-made crowns.
