Single visit full ceramic crown to restore a cracked and heavily filled lower molar
Same Day Crown
Your crown completed and fitted in a single visit. No temporaries, no impression material, minimal wait time.
If you require a crown and your situation is suitable, we have the capability to complete the procedure in one visit. Your appointment will usually involve:
• Preparation where the tooth is prepared or reshaped for a crown. This can include the replacement of old, deteriorating fillings on the tooth to ensure a sound ‘base’ for the crown.
• A digital scan is then done of the preparation and surrounding teeth. Your dentist will then design the crown for you and it will then be made onsite. You can even watch it being made.
• A break of between 20-40 minutes while your crown is being made. Some people choose to go for a walk, others stay and catch up on email, socials , news or watch Netflix
• Once your crown is ready your dentist will check the fit, colour, bite before cementing it in.
No mouthful of impression material, no temporary crown, no second visit
Surgical Warning
Any surgical or invasive procedure carries risks. Before proceeding, you should obtain opinions and advice by an appropriately qualified health practitioner. Results and procedures required will vary from individual to individual.
At Redcliffe Dental we see every case as unique so your dentist will let you know if your case is not suitable for a same visit crown. For cases that aren’t suitable to be done in house, we work with some of the best locally based technicians using only TGA approved materials.
