The Benefits Of Same Day Crowns

Despite the American Dental Association's recommendation that adults see a dentist at least once a year, there are a number of factors that prevent many people from making a dental appointment until there is a problem. After anxiety and fear, lack of time and busy schedules are the most common reasons in which adults give for avoiding the dentist. But when serious oral health problems like a cavity, an infection, or breaking or losing a tooth happen, delaying or skipping treatment is not an option. The dentists at TLC Family Dentistry in Lee's Summit, MO, offer same day crowns for dental emergencies, and common cosmetic problems.

Same Day Crowns in Lee's Summit, MO

Crowns and bridgework are one of the most affordable and effective cosmetic and restorative dentistry options available. Whether you are missing a tooth, at risk of losing a tooth because of advanced tooth decay, or need to repair chips, cracks, or even severe staining and discolorations, crowns are one of the best methods to restore and improve your teeth. And now, thanks to technology, walking out of the dentist's office with a new smile is possible in a single visit.

Even simple dental restorations have traditionally required several appointments. The dentist takes an imprint of your teeth and designs a custom crown, which is then sent to a lab for production. Same day crowns are produced onsite with CAD/CAM (Computer-Aided Design/Computer-Aided Manufacturing) technology, which cuts out the need for the lab and allows the dentist to complete the restoration while you wait, no need to find the time to schedule a second or third appointment, and without sacrificing the quality and durability of traditional laboratory produced crowns.
