We make single visit crowns at this office. If you’ve had a crown done in years past, you may remember having to wear a plastic or metal temporary tooth while a dental laboratory made a crown for you. That meant you would have to return to the dentist a couple of weeks after the first appointment to get another shot and have the crown cemented in place. Now, with CAD/CAM technology, we can scan your prepared tooth with a special camera, and make a new crown in about 30 minutes. In most cases the tooth is still numb and the new crown can be cemented immediately.
