Imagine walking into our Nashua office with a damaged tooth and leaving the same day with a beautiful, fully restored smile – no temporary crowns, no second appointments, and no weeks of waiting. That’s the magic of same-day dental crowns using our advanced CEREC technology. At the Center for Dental Excellence, we create custom ceramic crowns right in our office while you relax comfortably in our treatment room. No goopy impressions, no uncomfortable temporaries, just precise, natural-looking restorations designed and placed in a single visit. Whether you have a cracked tooth, need to replace a large filling, or require an emergency crown, our same-day solution gets you back to smiling confidently in just one appointment.

What Are Same-Day Crowns?

Same-day crowns are custom ceramic tooth restorations that are designed, created, and placed in your mouth during a single dental visit. Unlike traditional crowns that require two appointments and temporary restorations, our CEREC system allows us to complete your entire crown treatment in about 2 hours.

The process uses advanced CAD/CAM technology to create a precise digital model of your tooth, design your crown on a computer, and mill it from a solid block of high-quality ceramic – all while you wait. This single-visit approach is perfect for busy patients, emergency situations, or anyone who simply wants to get their dental treatment completed as quickly and conveniently as possible.

How Our CEREC Technology Works

Our state-of-the-art CEREC system makes same-day crowns possible through a streamlined digital process:

Digital Impressions

We use a small intraoral camera to take precise 3D digital images of your prepared tooth. No messy impression material required – just quick, comfortable scanning that captures every detail.

Computer Design

Using specialized software, we design your crown on a computer screen, ensuring perfect fit, proper bite alignment, and natural appearance. You can even watch as we create your restoration!

In-Office Milling

Our CEREC milling unit carves your crown from a solid block of high-quality ceramic in about 10-15 minutes. The result is a strong, beautiful restoration that matches your natural teeth perfectly.

Bonding and Finishing

We carefully place your new crown, make any necessary adjustments for comfort and bite, and polish it to a natural luster. You leave with a completely finished restoration.

Same-Day Crowns vs. Traditional Dental Crowns

Same-Day CEREC Crowns:
