Same-day crowns

Beautiful teeth,
even faster

CEREC crowns are a same-day solution for your tooth restoration, allowing you to walk into the practice with your existing teeth and walk out with a brand-new crown. They are the same high quality as our usual crowns, but they’ll be ready within a couple of hours as opposed to a couple of weeks. This is the perfect solution for busy patients as you won’t have to wait around for your crowns to be made. Everything can be finished for you in just one appointment.

How are CEREC crowns placed?

We will begin by carrying out an examination to check that crowns are the right option for you. Once we have reached a conclusion, we will be able to prepare the tooth, take a scan, make the crown and fit it – all within the space of a couple of hours. Using traditional techniques and ordering the crowns from a laboratory will usually take two weeks.

We use CAD-CAM technology to make sure we achieve the perfect fit with your new crowns. This ensures they fit perfectly with your bite and look as natural as possible. During the process the teeth may need to be numbed and contoured in order to fit the crowns. If you have any concerns or are a nervous patient we will work to reassure you and make the experience pain free. Gentle dentistry is our specialism.

Why might you choose same-day crowns?

These are some of the instances in which CEREC same-day crowns might work for you:

You’ve chipped a tooth

If you have a newly chipped or damaged tooth and you don’t want to wait, same-day crowns mean your teeth can be restored quickly. A crown will look better than multiple fillings and it will be stronger as well, lasting for longer. CEREC crowns are made from high-end porcelain that is stain resistant, keeping your teeth looking shiny and beautiful.

You’re a nervous patient

Same-day crowns are perfect for nervous patients. You won’t have to come in for multiple appointments as you can have your treatment completed in one day. There’s no waiting around while your crowns are made in the lab, which many of our nervous patients dislike. We make your crowns here for you based on high-tech scans to ensure they’re perfect.

You want to improve the appearance of your teeth, quickly

Crowns can be used to address many cosmetic concerns, including tooth alignment, colour, shape, size and more. If you want to address these as quickly as possible, then same-day crowns are the fastest way of doing so. We can place as many crowns as you need to improve the cosmetic appearance of your teeth.
We also offer standard crowns, so if you want to replace fillings, have a crown fitted after a root canal, or want to improve the appearance of your teeth in general, we can help.

  Great service from start to finish. A very personal and caring experience.
I broke a tooth afew weeks ago and the break is not a simple one as it is a vertical split. Normally I would have the tooth replaced but because I am in the middle of a cycle of chemotherapy and my immune system is somewhat compromised this is not possible so Dr Kam fitted a temporary 'crown' with great skill. This lasted a week before I forgot to be careful with it and it came adrift.
On phoning the surgery for an 'emergency' appointment my call was answered after a couple of rings, I spoke to a real person and was able to secure an apppointment in less than 48 hours. On this visit Dr Kam did some more sculpting of the broken tooth to fit a new, stronger, metal cap with super strong glue. This feels great and will have to last for another 4 months while I finish chemotherapy and my blood counts are such that I can have a tooth replaced.

  Had a crown installed today after having the prep work a few weeks ago, very happy with the outcome.

  A really comfortable pain free root canal and new crown experience with the very kind Dr Kam and the rest of the team at Gentle Dental. They really took care of me when I was in quite a lot of pain.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“I recently had a full-mouth crown reconstruction done, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! From start to finish, the care, precision, and attention to detail were exceptional, Iain my dentist took the time to explain every step, making sure I was comfortable and confident throughout the process. The crowns look incredibly natural and feel just like my own teeth — I can smile and eat with confidence again. I’m so grateful for the skill and artistry that went into this work. Highly recommend to anyone considering major dental restoration

Considering other options?

Same-day crowns are an excellent option, but we offer many other services that could also work for you. Veneers are another method of improving the appearance of your teeth, and if you are happy with the alignment but not the colour, teeth whitening might be the best option instead. For missing teeth, we offer options such as dentures, bridges and implants.
