Same-day crowns in Hampton, VA

A crown is a tooth-shaped cap that is placed over a tooth to restore its shape and size, strength, and appearance. A crown may be necessary if your tooth is cracked or broken, has a large filling, or has extensive decay. Essentially, a crown becomes your tooth’s new outer surface.

Same-day crowns in Hampton, VA, are tooth-shaped caps that are placed over a tooth by a dentist in one visit. Traditional crowns usually require two visits and a temporary restoration for about two weeks, while the permanent crown is fabricated in a laboratory. With modern advancements in dentistry, we can now fabricate crowns in our office using high-quality materials that last for a long time. These custom-created Same-day crowns in Hampton, VA, will fit more precisely than traditional ones and are esthetically pleasing.

What are the benefits of Same-day crowns in Hampton, VA?

Our dentist will first prepare your tooth for treatment. This will involve removing the damaged portion of the enamel and filling it with a composite material. Then, he will take a digital impression and send it to our lab to have the crown fabricated. 

With CEREC® technology, the Same-day crowns in Hampton, VA, are milled from a single block of ceramic. Because of this, there is no need to wear a temporary restoration while the tooth is restored with a permanent one. CEREC® technology is advanced enough to create restorations that look and feel like natural teeth. The same-day treatment is completed in just one visit and takes less than two hours. It is color-matched to the surrounding enamel, so it looks natural in your mouth. It is made on the premises using CAD/CAM software to ensure the accurate design and precise fit of the restoration. Like the other same-day options, it is completed in a single visit. This means you will walk out of your appointment with a restored smile the same day you visit the dentist.
