Who Is a Good Candidate for Same-Day Crowns?
Created on October 31, 2024
If you need a dental crown, you may have heard about same-day crowns and their convenience. Unlike traditional crowns that require multiple visits, same-day crowns offer a quick, single-visit solution. But are they right for you? Let’s explore who makes a good candidate for same-day crowns and why they might be an ideal option for your dental needs.
At Taylor Street Dental, you have access to a team of skilled and experienced dentists, including Dr. David I. Peck, with over 35 years of experience, Dr. Elwira Tyra, Dr. Stephen J. Greenberg, and Dr. Hien Truong. Our cosmetic and restorative dentistry expertise allows patients to receive durable and natural-looking crowns in just one visit using advanced CEREC technology. We focus on patient comfort and convenience, utilizing the latest technology to help you achieve your smile dreams.
What Are Same-Day Crowns?
Same-day crowns are custom-made dental restorations designed, milled, and placed in your mouth in one appointment. Thanks to advanced CEREC (Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics) technology, your dentist can take digital impressions, create the crown on-site, and secure it within a few hours.
Candidates for Same-Day Crowns
Most people who require a dental crown can be great candidates for same-day crowns. Here are some specific situations where you might benefit from this convenient option:
Cracked or Broken Teeth
For a cracked or broken tooth that needs immediate restoration, a same-day crown can quickly repair the damage and restore function, protecting your tooth from further harm.
Tooth Decay
When you have severe tooth decay and a filling isn’t enough to regain strength, a same-day crown can cover and protect it, preventing further decay.
Old or Damaged Crowns
If you already have a damaged or worn-out crown, a same-day crown can be an excellent replacement option, allowing you to avoid multiple visits.
Cosmetic Improvements
Same-day crowns are also great for improving the look of teeth that are discolored, misshapen, or uneven, helping you achieve a natural-looking smile in just one visit.
When Same-Day Crowns May Not Be Ideal
While same-day crowns are suitable for most, there are instances where there might be better options. Your dentist may recommend another restorative treatment for complex cases involving severe alignment issues or if you require extensive dental work.
