Why Same-Day
One visit instead of two
A traditional crown usually means two appointments and a temporary crown in between. Ours is designed, printed and placed in a single visit.
| Compare | Same-day crown | Traditional crown |
|---|---|---|
| Visits | One | Usually two |
| Temporary crown | None | Worn while you wait for the lab |
| Impressions | Digital scan | Often goopy impressions |
| Made | In our office | At an outside lab |
