Did you know that we can create and place a custom dental crown in only one day? With same-day placement, our team can offer treatment for everything from damaged teeth to advanced tooth decay. Your Richardson, TX, dentist talks about the process of creating and placing your same-day dental crowns!
The Scenarios That Call for a Crown
When should you see our team for a dental crown? We could place this full restoration to take on restorative concerns, and offer cosmetic benefits at the same time. For example, we can treat cavities too severe for a filling to treat, or complete a root canal if you have an infected tooth. Placement has helped improve bite balance and chewing function. We can repair cracked, chipped, and broken teeth. If you have missing teeth, they have been used to secure a dental bridge in place or to restore a single tooth dental implant!
The Same-Day Placement
Did you know that we can place them in only one visit? With CAD/CAM technology, we can create and place them in the same visit, so you leave with a completely restored tooth. To begin, our team will numb the tooth being treated and then remove structure from it to make room for your restoration. With digital imaging technology, we take pictures and measurements of the tooth from multiple angles, and use them to design the restoration with precision. We upload the design into an onsite milling machine, which crafts them from lifelike and durable ceramic. When the restoration is complete, we check the fit and make any final adjustments. Finally, we attach the completed one with a powerful bonding agent, so your new restoration can stay in place for years to come!
Protecting Your Smile
In addition to repairing and treating teeth in only one visit, we can also discuss ways to help lower the risk of issues that could require repair. Daily brushing and flossing and visits for checkups and cleanings every six months can limit tooth decay and infection. Wearing a mouthguard if you play sports can prevent injuries to the teeth. These actions help safeguard your natural teeth and keep your restoration bright and strong too. If you have any questions about how we create and place your custom crowns in only one visit, then contact our team today to learn more. We want to help you smile with confidence and enjoy better oral health at the same time.
