Let Us Handle Your Same-Day Dental Crowns
Dental crowns cover the “crown” of a tooth, acting as a cap, and that’s how they get their name. We employ them to restore decayed, worn down, cracked, and broken teeth. And we always make sure they’re designed to look and fit naturally for you.
We’re excited to offer same-day crowns at CarolinasDentist using CEREC®, which cuts a multiple-visit procedure down to just one visit. We’ll take digital impressions of your teeth (no more of those uncomfortable, goopy impression trays), design your custom crown, and send the information to the on-site milling center (no waiting weeks for an off-site lab to do it for us). This modern technology also allows us to make any corrections and adjustments right then and there, saving you time and letting you walk out with a permanent, custom-fit restoration.
Same-Day Dental Crowns FAQs
Are same-day dental crowns as good as regular crowns?
Using advanced technology like CAD/CAM systems, same-day dental crowns are custom-made on-site, ensuring a precise fit and natural appearance. Same-day crowns are often made out of porcelain, offering durability and functionality similar to traditional crowns. If you have not had a same-day crown before, one of our dentists will inform you of all its benefits!
Why would I need a same-day crown?
A same-day dental crown offers convenience and efficiency in restoring a damaged or weak tooth. It can also help you feel confident in your smile again. Same-day crowns provide an immediate solution for patients looking to restore their smiles beautifully and effectively.
Will a dentist do a same-day extraction?
In many cases, yes — if the tooth is infected, broken, or causing severe pain, a same-day extraction may be scheduled. After an exam and X-ray, we can determine if it is safe to remove the tooth immediately or if medication or additional preparation is needed first. We can also discuss our tooth-replacement options with you, if applicable. Our priority is to relieve pain and protect your oral health as quickly as possible.
Do I have to call to make a same-day dentist appointment?
It is best to call so we can assess your situation and secure the soonest available time. We try to read and respond to virtual requests as quickly as we can, but calling helps us prioritize urgent cases and give you instructions before you arrive. The sooner you contact us, the faster we can help.
Can I visit another location if my usual office is booked for the day?
Yes! CarolinasDentist has more than a dozen locations across North Carolina, so you are welcome to schedule a same-day visit at another office if your regular location has no openings. All of our offices share patient records, so the team at any location can access your history and provide the same level of consistent, seamless care without delay.
I’ve been coming to this dental office since November, and it’s been an amazing experience from the start. I had crooked bottom teeth, and now, thanks to Invisalign and the office’s outstanding services, everything is perfectly straight. Dr. Lauren Steddum and Sierra were incredible throughout the process: friendly, professional, and always made me feel comfortable. The entire staff is warm and welcoming. I highly recommend this office to anyone looking for high-quality dental care in a supportive environment.
I have recently become a patient at Carolina Dental, and i’ve never been happier with a dentist office! Dr. Mullen and his team are very knowledgeable, understanding, and transparent. I have a lot of anxiety when it comes to the dentist and they made me feel at ease. I got fillings for the first time and I was very nervous. Dr.Mullen explained the whole process before and during the procedure. They allowed me to listen to my audio book during the process and even had a blanket ready if I needed it. They also have TVs in every exam room to make your appointment fly by. Everyone at the front desk is very sweet and so are the hygienists and dental assistants. They crafted their team with care and with people who have a passion for a healthy happy smile. Very thankful I found Carolina’s dentist!
Dr. V was extremely nice and understanding. He did not try to push me into anything that I did not want. His lovely assistant made me feel comfortable and she was very friendly. I appreciate the kindness of them both. A big shout out to Brandy who assisted in making this visit possible.
