What Is the CEREC Same-Day Crowns Process?

Digital Scanning

Your journey to a new smile begins with a consultation with Dr. Matian. He uses a state-of-the-art digital scanner to create a 3D image of your damaged tooth, eliminating the need for messy, traditional impressions. The scanner captures every detail, ensuring your custom crown will fit perfectly and restore your tooth’s function and appearance.

Custom Crown Design

Once the scan is complete, Dr. Matian uses advanced CEREC software to design your crown. The design is then sent to our in-office milling machine, where a block of ceramic is precisely shaped to match your tooth. This process takes just minutes, and you can even watch as your crown is crafted. The result is a restoration that blends seamlessly with your natural smile.

Final Fitting and Placement

After the crown is milled, Dr. Matian ensures it fits perfectly and aligns comfortably with your bite. He will make any necessary adjustments before bonding the crown securely to your tooth. The entire process is completed in one visit, so you leave BioDental with a strong, beautiful, and natural-looking restoration the same day. The entire process typically takes 1.5 to 2 hours.

What are the Benefits of CEREC Same-Day Crowns in Encino?

Quick and Convenient Treatment

With same-day crowns in Encino, there’s no need for multiple appointments or temporary crowns. The entire process—from scanning to crown placement—is done in one visit. This saves you time and minimizes disruptions to your schedule. You can walk out with a restored smile.

Precise Digital Design

CEREC technology uses advanced 3D imaging to create a detailed digital model of your tooth. This ensures a crown that fits perfectly and aligns seamlessly with your bite. The precision reduces the risk of adjustments or discomfort after placement.

Durable and Natural-Looking Results

Made from high-quality ceramic, same-day crowns are strong and long-lasting. The material mimics the natural translucency of tooth enamel, providing a lifelike appearance. Unlike metal crowns, they are free of dark lines and blend beautifully with your natural teeth.

Comfortable and Minimally Invasive

Digital scanning is non-invasive and eliminates the need for traditional impressions. This makes the procedure more comfortable, especially for patients with a sensitive gag reflex. Additionally, the process preserves more of the tooth structure than traditional methods.

Eliminates Temporary Crowns

Traditional crown procedures often require temporary crowns that can loosen or cause discomfort. With CEREC, temporary crowns are unnecessary, so there’s no need for additional visits and a lower risk of complications. You leave with a permanent solution immediately.

Metal-Free and Biocompatible

CEREC crowns in Encino are made from ceramic, a metal-free, biocompatible, and hypoallergenic material, which is ideal for patients seeking holistic dental solutions or those with metal sensitivities. The crowns are also resistant to stains and corrosion.

How Long Do CEREC Crowns Last?

CEREC crowns are made from high-quality ceramic and are designed to be durable and long-lasting. With proper care, including regular brushing, flossing, and checkups, these crowns can last 10 to 15 years or more. Avoiding teeth grinding, biting on hard objects, or using your teeth as tools can extend their lifespan. Dr. Matian will provide you with guidance on maintaining your crown for optimal longevity.

Are Same-Day Crowns as Strong as Traditional Crowns?

Yes, with same-day technology crowns are just as strong and reliable as traditional crowns. The ceramic material used in CEREC crowns is both durable and resistant to wear, making it ideal for restoring the function of your tooth. While traditional crowns may use a combination of metals or porcelain, CEREC crowns are entirely metal-free, offering comparable strength with the added benefit of a more natural look.

Client Reviews

Dr. Shawn’s work is outstanding. His staff is efficient, warm and comforting. I had 3 implants, 7 crowns and a front tooth broken off in my gums. It took about 2 years to complete my teeth because the office was accommodating my financial issues so I could get all the work completed. Dr. Shawn’s work is amazing. My teeth are beautiful!

This place is simply the best. Best dentist, best hygienist, best staff. I never enjoyed cleanings before but now they are a pleasant experience. They have the best technology so crowns are printed onsite and are measured with impressive accuracy. I just can’t say enough good about Biodental.

Same-Day Crowns FAQs

Am I a candidate for same-day crowns?

You may be a candidate if you have a cracked, chipped, decayed, or weakened tooth that needs protection and restoration. Same-day crowns are ideal when enough healthy tooth structure remains to support the crown. During your visit, your dentist will evaluate your tooth and determine if this efficient, one-visit solution is right for you.

Will my same-day crown match my natural teeth?

Yes, your crown is custom-designed to blend seamlessly with your surrounding teeth. Using advanced digital technology, your restoration is shaped and shaded to match your natural enamel, ensuring a lifelike appearance that enhances your smile without looking artificial.

How do I care for same-day crowns?

You care for your crown just like your natural teeth by brushing twice daily, flossing daily, and visiting the dentist regularly. Avoiding habits like teeth grinding or biting hard objects can also help extend the life of your restoration.

What other restorations can be combined with same-day crowns?

Same-day crowns work beautifully alongside other restorative and cosmetic treatments at BioDental. Patients often pair their crown with dental implants if the underlying tooth needs to be replaced, veneers for a complete smile makeover, or metal-free fillings to address additional decay in surrounding teeth. During your consultation, Dr. Matian will evaluate your full smile and recommend any complementary treatments to help you achieve the best long-term result.
