You can usually get a same-day dental crown in our office. Our modern but friendly dental practice relies on leading-edge technology to make these same-day restorations a reality for our valued patients.
Reasons you may need or want a dental crown include:
- A weak or at-risk tooth, usually following a tooth infection, deep decay, or injury
- A short or worn-down tooth that is compromising your bite surface and jaw joint health
- An aesthetically unflattering tooth that is stained, chipped, or abnormally shaped
- As part of tooth replacement to connect a dental bridge or complete a dental implant
- To repair a chip or severe break in the tooth that leaves it vulnerable to loss or infection.
Same-Day Dental Crowns in Brentwood, TN
We take digital, hassle-free impressions of the treated tooth and send the results to our on-site computer for design. The design is then forwarded to our in-office milling machine for printing.
The dentist adjusts the restoration for fit and appearance before cementing it over the treated tooth.
In many cases, we can do this while you wait.
Benefits of Same-Day Tooth Crowns
- We make CEREC same-day dental crowns from beautiful and durable porcelain.
- With same-day crowns, you don’t have to endure multiple appointments and time away from work or family.
- Same-day crowns mean no temporary restorations to contend with.
Caring for Dental Crowns Is a Breeze
Dental crowns are easy to care for and require the same maintenance as your teeth.
You should brush your teeth and crowns twice daily and floss at least once, preferably before bed. Regular dental care, such as seeing your dentist every six months for checkups and teeth cleanings, is also essential.
As with natural teeth, don’t use your crowns to twist off caps or rip open packages. Also, avoid biting directly into ice, taffy, or similar.
