Usually, it takes at least two appointments to receive a traditional dental crown; during your first visit, your dentist will evaluate your mouth, take x-rays, and then make impressions of your teeth. Once your crown has been made at the dental lab, you’ll return for a second visit to have it installed.
With that said, it is now possible to recite a same-day dental crown. CEREC is a computer design system that can create restorative dental prosthetics within minutes. High-quality digital pictures will be taken of your teeth, and then used to fashion a 3D prosthetic, typically made from ceramic, that will satisfy your oral dimensions.
