Protecting Your Smile With Same-Day Dental Crowns
Dental crowns are used for a number of reasons. Our strong porcelain crowns can save your tooth if it has been damaged by an injury, been treated for a large cavity, or undergone a root canal to eliminate an infection. The crown’s job is to make sure your tooth is strong and healthy so you can chew any foods you want, feel no discomfort, and enjoy a natural look.
Dr. Carol, Dr. Carolyn Duong, or Dr. Roberto will use CEREC technology to create your crown in just one day. Here’s how it works:
- We’ll perform an examination, prepare your teeth, and create a hassle-free digital impression of your mouth
- We’ll make a custom-designed crown using our CEREC milling machine based on your digital impressions
- We’ll gently bond the crown onto your tooth
Providing Your Full Smile By Replacing Teeth With Dental Bridges
Dental bridges fill in the gap in your smile if you’re missing one or a few teeth. We also use CEREC same-day technology to create bridges. As with dental crowns, a digital impression will be made of your mouth. From there:
- We’ll create dental crowns using our CEREC machine and affix them to your solid replacement tooth or teeth, also made with CEREC
- We’ll attach the bridge to your existing teeth on either side of the gap
