The Same-Day Crown Process
When you visit Dynamic Dentistry AZ for a same-day dental crown, we use digital technology to streamline every step of your treatment. After a thorough examination, our dentists will determine if a crown is the right solution for your needs. If so, the process will include:- Digital Impressions: A highly detailed digital scan of your teeth replaces the need for traditional putty impressions, providing a more comfortable experience.
- 3D Design and Milling: Using advanced software, we design your custom crown and mill it from a high-quality, tooth-colored ceramic block.
- Precise Placement: Once your crown is ready, we will bond it securely to your tooth and make any necessary adjustments to ensure a comfortable fit.

The Benefits of Same-Day Crowns
Choosing a same-day crown offers several advantages over traditional crowns, including:- Time Savings: Completing your crown in a single appointment eliminates the need for multiple visits.
- No Temporary Crowns: Traditional crowns require a temporary restoration while the permanent one is created. With same-day crowns, you avoid this extra step.
- Precise Fit: Digital impressions ensure a highly accurate crown that blends seamlessly with your natural teeth.
- Durability and Aesthetics: Same-day crowns are crafted from strong, tooth-colored ceramic, providing both durability and a natural appearance.

How long does a same-day crown last?
A same-day crown can last 10 to 15 years or longer with proper care. Avoiding hard foods, practicing good oral hygiene and attending regular dental checkups will help extend its lifespan. Although made from durable ceramic, excessive grinding or biting on non-food objects can cause premature wear.
Is a same-day crown as strong as a traditional crown?
Yes, same-day crowns are made from high-quality ceramic that provides excellent strength and durability. While traditional crowns may offer more material options, same-day crowns are designed to withstand normal chewing forces and function just like a natural tooth, making them a long-lasting solution for many patients.
Does getting a same-day crown hurt?
The procedure is designed to be as comfortable as possible. A local anesthetic is used to numb the area before any tooth preparation begins. Most patients experience minimal discomfort during and after the procedure. If you have dental anxiety, we can discuss additional options to help keep you at ease.
Can I eat normally after getting a same-day crown?
Yes, but it is best to wait until the anesthetic wears off before eating to avoid accidentally biting your cheek or tongue. Once the crown is bonded, you can eat as usual. However, it is recommended to avoid very hard or sticky foods for the first 24 hours to allow for optimal bonding.
