Looking for same-day crowns in Portland, OR? Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics (CEREC) same-day crowns allow you to walk in with a problematic tooth and walk out with a restored smile. Take a closer look at some top questions patients tend to have about same-day crowns.

How long does it take to make a CEREC crown?

A CEREC crown can be created while you wait in the dentist’s chair—the full creation process only takes about 20 minutes or less in most cases. This is quite impressive when you consider that getting a standard crown made at a dental lab can sometimes take several days or even weeks.

How durable is a same-day dental crown?

CEREC crowns can last just as long as traditional crowns. These crowns may be made quicker, but this is because the equipment used to make the crown is right in the office. The material the crown is made out of is just as durable as the material used to make crowns the traditional way.

Does the same-day crown look as good as standard dental crowns?

The same-day crown process still looks the same as getting a standard crown. The dentist will work to match the shade of the material to your existing teeth and ensure the end result looks natural. Therefore, you will walk away with a new crown that looks like a natural tooth.
