At Eagle Point Dental, we are pleased to offer CEREC same-day crowns and same-day crowns using E4D-Planmeca technology because we recognize how valuable your time is. These crowns are a trusted and effective alternative to conventional dental crowns and can protect your decayed or chipped smile without requiring you to schedule multiple appointments!

What Are Same-Day Crowns, And What Makes Them Convenient?

Same-day crowns are customized porcelain caps that fit over weakened teeth and are designed to save you time and repair your smile using the E4D-Planmeca System. They can be created and placed in one appointment! Meanwhile, traditional crowns often require more than two visits, several weeks apart, which can be inconvenient for patients with busy schedules. Here’s what else same-day crowns can offer:

• No Temporary Crowns: The primary benefit of utilizing E4D technology is that it can eliminate the need for impressions for temporary crowns. This technology has been around for almost 30 years and is ideal for patients who desire a solid ceramic, a tooth-colored alternative to traditional crowns. Your same-day crowns are crafted and may be prepared in around two hours.
• Digital Impressions: Bid farewell to untidy dental molds. We can use intraoral cameras to optimize images and view your oral structure.Digital impressions should only take around 10 minutes!

How Are The Crowns Placed?

• First Assessment: To ensure that same-day crowns are suitable for you, our dentist will examine your tooth or teeth, looking for signs of damage as a result of a cavity, decay, or injury. If the damage is not too extreme and does not require an extraction, you may be able to have same-day crowns. Tooth preparation should only take around 45 minutes.
• E4D Technology: Following the initial preparation of the tooth or teeth, a 3D scan of the area and the rest of the mouth is conducted. Our dentist can create your crown to fit your mouth without causing discomfort using this scan.
• In-House Crown-Making Solutions: The crowns will be milled at our practice using our crown-making equipment.
• Crown Glazing: Our dental assistants will then glaze and stain your same-day crowns with a colour that’s designed to match your natural teeth.
• Harden the Porcelain Crowns: The porcelain is finally hardened in our oven, which is set at more than 800 degrees Celsius.
