Crowns & Bridges
Same-day CEREC crowns and custom bridges that restore strength, function, and aesthetics to damaged or missing teeth.
Overview
When teeth are damaged by decay, fracture, or wear, crowns and bridges restore both function and appearance. Our same-day CEREC technology allows us to design, fabricate, and place a permanent crown in a single appointment — no temporary crowns, no second visit. For multiple missing teeth, custom bridges provide a fixed, natural-looking restoration that prevents shifting and maintains your bite.
Who This Is For
- Patients with cracked, fractured, or severely worn teeth
- Individuals with large fillings that need replacement
- Those missing one or more adjacent teeth
- Patients who have undergone root canal treatment requiring crown protection
Who This Is Not For
- Patients needing full-arch rehabilitation (multiple implants or dentures may be indicated)
- Individuals with active gum disease requiring treatment first
Process
What to Expect
Tooth Preparation & Digital Impression
The tooth is gently shaped to accommodate the restoration. A digital scan captures precise measurements for your custom crown or bridge.
Same-Day Fabrication
Using CEREC technology, your restoration is milled from a solid block of high-strength ceramic while you wait — typically 15–20 minutes.
Try-In & Adjustment
The restoration is placed temporarily to check fit, bite, and color. Adjustments are made to ensure perfect comfort and function.
Final Cementation
Once you and our dentist are satisfied, the restoration is permanently cemented. You leave with a fully restored, natural-looking smile in just one visit.
