Getting a dental crown is not like it used to be, where multiple appointments, temporary crowns, and other inconveniences were the norm. Today, CAD/CAM (Computer-Aided Design/Computer-Aided Manufacturing) technology has revolutionized dentistry, particularly in the world of dental crowns. If you have been seeking a dentist who does crowns in a day, it is easier than ever before. Dentists like Dr. Anshuman Rawat at Advanced Dental Practices in Wrentham, Massachusetts, can now offer same-day crowns through systems like CEREC (Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics).
Here’s how CAD/CAM technology has made same-day dental crowns possible.
CAD/CAM technology enables dentists to create custom ceramic crowns in just one visit. Traditional crown procedures typically require multiple appointments over several weeks, involving messy impressions, temporary crowns, and laboratory fabrication. CEREC allows patients to receive their permanent crown in just one appointment, saving time and reducing inconvenience.
Instead of traditional putty impressions, CAD/CAM systems use digital scanners to capture highly accurate 3D images of the patient’s teeth and bite. This eliminates the need for uncomfortable impression materials and enables dentists to obtain precise digital impressions quickly and efficiently.
CAD/CAM software allows dentists to design crowns with unprecedented precision and customization. Dentists can manipulate digital models of the patient’s teeth to create crowns that fit seamlessly with the surrounding dentition, ensuring optimal aesthetics, function, and comfort.
Once the crown design is finalized using CAD software, the CAM component of the system manufactures the restoration in-office utilizing a milling machine. This process typically takes about an hour, allowing patients to receive their permanent crown during the same dental visit. Immediate fabrication eliminates the need for temporary crowns and minimizes the risk of complications associated with multiple appointments.
CEREC same-day crowns are typically fabricated from superior quality ceramics, including zirconia or lithium disilicate, which provide excellent strength, durability, and aesthetics. Patients can receive durable, natural-looking crowns that blend seamlessly with their natural teeth, restoring both function and appearance.
The convenience, efficiency, and high quality of CEREC same-day crowns contribute to improved patient satisfaction. Patients appreciate the ability to have their dental restoration completed in a single visit, minimizing time off work and reducing anxiety associated with multiple appointments.
CAD/CAM technology has transformed the crown restoration process by enabling dentists like Dr. Rawat to offer same-day crowns through systems like CEREC.
