Same-day crowns and bridges are permanent ceramic restorations made and placed in one appointment using CEREC technology.
CEREC® - Key Takeaways
Same-day crowns save you time and hassle
Using CEREC® technology, PS Dental Studio designs, mills, and places your permanent crown in a single visit—no temporary crowns, no follow-ups, and no waiting weeks for a lab-made crown.
The process is more comfortable and precise than the alternative
Digital impressions replace messy putty trays, and in-house milling ensures an exact fit. This leads to fewer injections, better aesthetics, and longer-lasting results.
They’re built to last and look completely natural
CEREC® crowns are made from high-quality ceramic or zirconia that mimics natural teeth and resists wear for 15+ years with proper care. They’re color-matched for a seamless blend with your smile.
Same-day crowns are cost-effective and covered by most insurance
With comparable pricing to traditional crowns—and no added cost for temporaries—they’re a smart investment. Plus, PS Dental Studio accepts most major insurances and offers financing through CareCredit®, Proceed Finance, and in-house plans.

What are same-day dental crowns?
Same-day dental crowns are custom-designed, permanent tooth restorations created and placed during one dental visit. These crowns restore cracked, decayed, or weakened teeth using CEREC (Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics) technology. The process eliminates messy impressions, temporary crowns, and weeks of waiting for laboratory fabrication.
You arrive with a damaged tooth and leave with a strong, permanent crown. This represents the complete same-day crown experience at PS Dental Studio.
How does CEREC technology make same-day crowns possible?
CEREC technology revolutionizes traditional crown fabrication through advanced digital dentistry:
- Digital scanning precision: We capture precise 3D digital impressions using CAD/CAM scanning technology. This eliminates uncomfortable putty impressions while creating accurate digital models of your prepared tooth.
- On-site crown milling: Your crown is crafted in our office using premium ceramic or zirconia materials. Our in-house milling unit shapes your restoration while you wait comfortably in our treatment room.
- One-visit completion: The entire process from digital scan to final placement occurs in a single appointment. No second visits, no temporary crowns, and no laboratory delays.
Who is a candidate for same-day crowns?
Same-day crowns effectively treat various dental conditions:
Ideal Candidates
- Cracked, broken, or severely decayed teeth requiring full coverage
- Failed or large existing fillings needing replacement
- Worn-down teeth requiring strength reinforcement
- Root canal-treated teeth needing protection
- Healthy gums and adequate tooth structure remaining
Treatment limitations
CEREC technology cannot create full bridges in a single visit, though we use digital methods to expedite multi-unit restorations. We also offer same-day onlays and inlays for less extensive tooth damage.
