Damaged teeth requiring crowns no longer mean multiple appointments, temporary restorations, and weeks of waiting for your permanent solution. Same-day crown technology transforms the traditional crown process into a single, efficient visit where you leave with your final restoration in place, ready to function normally and look naturally beautiful from day one.
SmilePro Dental’s advanced same-day crown system combines cutting-edge CEREC technology with our team’s collaborative expertise to deliver exceptional family care crown solutions. Dr. Salam Awad works alongside our skilled dental assistants and laboratory technicians to design, create, and place your custom crown in just one appointment, eliminating the inconvenience and uncertainty of traditional multi-visit crown procedures.
Computer-aided design and manufacturing technology revolutionizes crown treatment by creating precise, durable restorations in our office while you wait. CEREC systems use advanced 3D imaging to capture detailed impressions of your prepared tooth, eliminating the need for messy traditional impressions that many patients find uncomfortable. This digital approach ensures exceptional accuracy and fit while allowing for immediate adjustments if needed.
The CEREC milling unit crafts your crown from high-quality ceramic blocks that match your natural tooth color and translucency perfectly. These materials offer excellent durability and aesthetic properties, creating restorations that blend seamlessly with your existing teeth. The entire process from preparation to final placement typically takes two to three hours, allowing you to complete your crown treatment in a single convenient appointment.
Same day crowns eliminate the need for temporary crowns, which can become loose, uncomfortable, or fall out during the waiting period for traditional lab-made restorations. Without temporary crowns, you avoid the dietary restrictions and special care requirements that typically accompany multi-visit crown procedures. This streamlined approach reduces the risk of sensitivity and discomfort often associated with wearing temporary restorations for weeks.
The convenience factor of same day crowns appeals to busy professionals and families who prefer to complete dental treatment efficiently. You can schedule your crown appointment knowing you’ll leave with a permanent solution, eliminating the need to return for crown placement and the potential complications that can arise during the waiting period. This approach also reduces the total time away from work or other responsibilities.
Your same-day crown appointment begins with a comprehensive evaluation and preparation of the affected tooth, ensuring optimal conditions for your new restoration. Dr. Awad carefully removes any decay or damage while preserving as much healthy tooth structure as possible. Our team’s attention to detail during preparation ensures your crown will fit properly and function comfortably for years to come.
Digital scanning captures precise measurements and contours of your prepared tooth and surrounding teeth, creating a 3D model used for crown design. Dr. Awad reviews and approves the digital design, making any necessary adjustments to ensure optimal fit, function, and appearance. The milling process then creates your custom crown while our team prepares for the final fitting and placement.
Modern ceramic crown materials offer exceptional strength and longevity, with same day crowns providing durability comparable to traditional lab-fabricated restorations. The high-quality ceramic blocks used in CEREC manufacturing resist wear, staining, and fracture while maintaining their natural appearance over time. These materials bond securely to your natural tooth structure, creating a strong, long-lasting restoration.
Color matching capabilities ensure your same day crown blends perfectly with your existing teeth, making the restoration virtually undetectable. The ceramic material mimics the light-reflecting properties of natural tooth enamel, creating depth and translucency that matches your surrounding teeth. This attention to aesthetic detail ensures your crown enhances rather than detracts from your natural smile.
Same day crown treatment works well for most patients requiring single-tooth restoration, including those with large fillings that have failed, cracked or broken teeth, and teeth weakened by root canal treatment. The technology excels at creating crowns for both front and back teeth, though the location and condition of the tooth may influence the specific approach used.
Patients with complex bite relationships or multiple adjacent teeth requiring treatment may benefit from traditional crown procedures that allow for more extensive laboratory customization. Dr. Awad evaluates each case individually, considering factors like tooth position, bite forces, and aesthetic requirements to determine whether same-day or traditional crown treatment provides optimal results for your specific situation.
Same day crowns often complement other cosmetic care treatments in comprehensive smile makeover plans, providing immediate results that can be coordinated with additional procedures. The ability to complete crown treatment in a single visit makes it easier to coordinate with other treatments and reduces the total number of appointments required for extensive dental work.
For patients undergoing preventive care treatment, same-day crowns can address damaged teeth quickly while maintaining the momentum of comprehensive oral health improvement. This integrated approach ensures all aspects of your dental health receive appropriate attention while maximizing convenience and treatment efficiency.
Same-day crowns require the same maintenance as traditional crowns and natural teeth, including regular brushing, flossing, and professional cleanings. The immediate placement of permanent restorations eliminates the special care requirements associated with temporary crowns, allowing you to resume normal eating and oral hygiene practices immediately after treatment.
Regular dental checkups allow Dr. Awad and our team to monitor your crown’s condition and address any concerns before they become problematic. With proper care, same day crowns can last many years, providing excellent value and function throughout their lifespan. Our team provides specific care instructions and recommendations to help ensure optimal longevity for your new restoration.
We commonly collaborate with other healthcare professionals to offer specialized care for complex dental cases and are committed to providing the best for your patients.
Our same day crown success reflects seamless teamwork between Dr. Awad’s University of Detroit Mercy School of Dentistry expertise and our trained technical staff who operate advanced CEREC equipment with precision and care. Through collective participation in continuing education and Dr. Awad’s ongoing development through the Spear Study Club, our entire team maintains current knowledge of digital dentistry innovations. Our patient coordinators collaborate with all insurance providers and arrange financing solutions to make same-day crown treatment accessible and affordable.
