Same-day Crowns Melbourne | Award Winning Clinic In Canterbury

Damaged a tooth and fearing the worst? Restore optimal appearance and functionality to your teeth in a matter of hours with same day crown treatments from Dentistry in Canterbury.

Drawing on the most sophisticated methods in restorative dentistry, we’re now able to provide our valued clients with high-quality, long-lasting crowns in just a single visit. Industry-leading CEREC 3D technology are used to sculpt a crown that moulds perfectly to the profile of your teeth, and restore your smile to its natural-looking form.

We’re strong advocates for CEREC, an advanced methodology that uses 3D imaging software to manufacture dental restorations more accurately than traditional techniques. When you come in for your same day crown appointment, we’ll begin by taking a scan of the mouth to map the measurements of the teeth and create a digital mock-up of the crown. Our in-house CEREC machine then brings the crown to life, following the precise dimensions of the digital replica. Your dentist inserts the crown onto the damaged tooth, and the procedure is complete.

A Chairside Efficient Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics (CEREC) crown is a type of ceramic crown made using a specialised machine in a matter of minutes. The machine uses 3D scans of the patient’s mouth to sculpt a crown that moulds perfectly to the precise dimensions of the damaged tooth.

A same-day crown appointment consists of a 3D scan of the mouth to map the precise measurements of the teeth, the construction of the ceramic crown using said scans and the insertion of the crown by the dentist. The entire process typically lasts around two hours.

Not only are CEREC same-day crowns a much faster alternative to traditional lab-created crowns, but they also provide a more natural look and allow for a better bite. This is because they are designed to fit the precise dimensions of the teeth. At Dentistry in Canterbury, your dentist will advise on the best options based on your needs.
