What Happens When You Get CEREC Same-Day Crowns?

Do you have broken or worn teeth causing chewing problems or affecting how you look? At Melinda Harr Dental, our dentist in Fargo, ND, can create crowns during your appointment and restore your teeth in one visit! Here’s what happens when you choose CEREC crowns as dental restorations.

Preparing Your Tooth

Getting a same-day crown involves some tooth prep before we can place it. We numb your tooth and gums so you won’t feel anything during your visit. Once the anesthetic takes effect, we remove the damaged or decayed portion of your tooth.

Taking Impressions

Digital impressions allow us to make custom crowns that fit your natural tooth comfortably. After we get these images, we’ll be ready to make your CEREC crown.

Creating Your New Crown

We have a milling machine at our office that uses CEREC technology, a type of computer-assisted technology. This software uses the digital impressions and ceramic materials to create a brand-new dental crown in roughly a half-hour.

Placing Your Crown

When we have your new crown, we’ll apply some dental cement to your tooth and put the crown on it. The cement holds it in place. We also use a special high-intensity light to secure the crown to your tooth.
