CEREC SAME-DAY CROWNS

Smile Faster

Restore your smile in a single visit - without compromising quality.

What Are Dental Crowns?

If you have a severely decayed or damaged tooth, a dental crown protects it. Dental crowns restore the tooth’s shape and strength, allowing you to perform everyday activities such as eating and speaking confidently.

If you’ve had a dental crown, you know the hassle:

Completing the entire treatment in 2-3 appointments, making you take more time off work
Wearing uncomfortable, ill-fitting temporaries for 2-3 weeks
Undergoing gooey impressions

With CEREC technology, those days are in the past! Watch our video to learn why.

How Same-Day Crowns Help You Smile Faster:

Save Time and Money

Same-day restorations eliminate the need for multiple appointments, saving you both time AND money since you avoid the expense of extra office visits.

Long-Lasting Results

CEREC crowns may be fast, but there’s no compromise on quality! CEREC crowns are made from top-quality, durable materials. When properly cared for, they can last for decades.

Perfect Fit

We use our 3D CAD/CAM imaging technology to create a highly-accurate blueprint of your mouth. Our in-house milling machine then custom shapes your new crown for a precise, accurate fit.

Gorgeous Results

Each same-day dental crown is custom-designed to fit perfectly with your natural smile. The high-quality material is color-matched to your surrounding teeth, so your new crown will look beautiful and natural!

No Messy Impressions

Traditional dental crowns often require goopy, gag-worthy manual impressions. Not with CEREC! We complete impressions digitally using advanced imaging technology.

No Temporaries

Since we design and craft your custom crown in-house in a single visit, there isn’t any need to wear a temporary crown between multiple visits.

How We Craft Dental Crowns in 1 Hour

Dr. Justin Griffin doing a digital impression for CEREC

Digital Impressions

First, Dr. Justin Griffin uses a small wand to take digital impressions of your damaged tooth.

The impressions are transferred to a computer, creating a 3D model of your tooth.

Dr. Griffin will use this model to plan and craft your new tooth – all done digitally!

Design + Placement

Then, your new tooth design is transferred to our milling machine, which is right in our office.

You’ll watch the machine create your new dental crown – color-matched to your smile – right before your eyes.

Once done, Dr. Griffin will immediately place and restore the same-day crown over your damaged tooth, repairing it.

Leave Smiling

Just like that, you’ll walk out of our office with your new permanent crown.

Now your damaged tooth is beautifully restored and functioning again.

‘‘I had a custom-made crown prepared and fitted in one day! The cost was the same as at a traditional dentist’s office. While you wait in the dentist’s chair, you are treated to a built-in massage feature and a TV with your own remote and earphones.’’

– Nancy H., Actual Patient

‘‘Dr. Griffin and his team are simply the best in the business! I was unhappy with work done by a previous dentist. My crowns were not symmetrical, poorly positioned, and off in color. Dr. Griffin went above and beyond to make sure my expectations were met, and I’m in love with my new smile!’’
