When a tooth becomes damaged or develops serious issues like advanced tooth decay, you may need more than a dental filling. With a dental crown, we can return your smile to optimal health, function, and beauty in only one visit. In today’s blog, your Londonderry, NH, dentist talks about our custom same-day crowns!
When You Need a Dental Crown
When does a tooth need to be restored with a crown? We may recommend a full restoration when we see a patient with tooth decay too severe to be treated with a filling alone. If a tooth is infected, this could complete the root canal process to bring instant relief. If a tooth is cracked or chipped/broken, then we could help with a full restoration. This could also help improve chewing function and bite balance for some, and could even aid in treating tooth loss. For example, we can use them to support a dental bridge, or to even restore a single tooth dental implant!
CEREC Same-Day Dental Restorations
In the past, the process of creating and placing a custom crown could mean two to three visits to the office. But for years we have offered our patients a same-day alternative in the form of CEREC crowns. Our team will start by numbing your tooth and then removing structure to make room for your new restoration. We then take detailed digital images of the tooth from multiple angles, and use these to design and create a 3D model of the tooth. We upload the design into an onsite milling machine, which crafts your new and custom option from ceramic. The ceramic material can handle daily bite forces and pressures, and also be color-matched to ensure a lifelike appearance.
Placing Your New Restoration
In the same visit, we will check the fit and if needed, we will make final adjustments. We then attach the finished product with a powerful bonding agent, shifting it can last for years to come. This provides relief and ensures a lifelike appearance. If you have any questions about how we restore teeth with a custom same-day dental restoration, then please reach out to our team today to learn more. You deserve a smile that is healthy and beautiful, and one with proper bite function too, and we can help make this a reality in 2026!
