By Tri-County Dental Arts – Charleston, SC
In the past, getting a dental crown was a multi-step process that involved temporary crowns, messy impressions, and waiting weeks for a lab to create your restoration. Fortunately, modern dental technology has changed all of that. At Tri-County Dental Arts, we’re proud to offer same-day crowns—a fast, precise, and convenient alternative that’s revolutionizing how we care for your smile.
What Are Same-Day Crowns?
Same-day crowns are custom-made dental restorations designed, milled, and placed in just one visit. Using cutting-edge CAD/CAM (Computer-Aided Design/Manufacturing) technology, we digitally scan your teeth, create a 3D model, and craft your crown right here in our office.
Benefits of Same-Day Crowns
1. One Visit Convenience
Traditional crowns typically require two or more appointments. With same-day crowns, you’re in and out with a fully restored tooth—saving you time, missed work, and extra visits.
2. No Messy Impressions
Forget uncomfortable trays filled with goo. Our digital scanner captures your tooth in seconds with precise accuracy and zero mess.
3. Strong, Durable Materials
Same-day crowns are milled from high-quality ceramic materials that closely mimic the strength and appearance of natural teeth.
4. Custom Fit and Natural Look
Digital design allows for an incredibly accurate fit. Plus, we carefully match the color and shape to blend seamlessly with your smile.
5. No Temporary Crowns
Because your permanent crown is made the same day, there’s no need for a fragile temporary crown or the worry of it falling off between visits.
How the Process Works at Tri-County Dental Arts
1. Digital Scan – We use an advanced intraoral scanner to create a 3D image of your tooth.
2. Design – Dr. Boller designs your crown chairside using CAD software.
3. Mill – The crown is milled from a solid block of ceramic using our in-office machine.
4. Bond – After checking the fit and appearance, we permanently bond your new crown in place—all in the same appointment.
