Having a crown installed is typically done after another dental treatment, like an extraction or root canal.
Same-day appointments to get dental crowns are available for the patients of Olympia's Impressions Dentistry office. The associates at Impressions Dentistry will go through the entire process of making and installing dental crowns in one day, so patients will no longer need to wear a temporary crown and return for additional appointments.
Dental crown treatment is a useful way for patients to fix the damage that cannot repairable by simply getting a filling. Regardless of the reason causing the tooth decay, a same-day dental crown can quickly and easily solve the issue while also for a long time so patients do not need to repeatedly get treatment.
Having a crown installed is typically done after another dental treatment, like an extraction or root canal. The process of having a crown installed will include the following:
- A CEREC intraoral scanner machine will measure and design your dental crown. Every individual crown will be designed and made on the day of your appointment. These dental crowns will be shaped to fit comfortably.
- A dental crown is typically made out of either zirconia or ceramic. The dental crown’s color will be matched to all of your natural teeth to help it blend in and look completely natural.
- Once these crowns are being made, they will be permanently bonded immediately afterward so that patients will not need to wear a temporary crown and come back for any follow-up appointments.
- A dental crown is also used when replacing the missing teeth of dental implants. In this particular situation, a dental crown is designed and made, then immediately placed on the titanium metal post of the dental implant. This process will also happen in a same-day appointment and will not require the use of a temporary crown or any follow-up appointments.
