Crowns are a highly effective solution for restoring damaged or decayed teeth. Traditionally, obtaining a crown involved multiple appointments and a waiting period for a lab to manufacture the crown. With our same day crowns, you can address the restoration needs of damaged, decayed, cracked, or broken teeth—all in a single day.
Thanks to CEREC technology, a single visit to our skilled practitioners is all it takes for a new, natural, permanently fixed ceramic (porcelain) crown. Say goodbye to prolonged waiting periods for laboratory-crafted crowns, the need for additional visits for adjustments, and the inconvenience of temporary crowns.
Our experienced doctors at DP Dental will skillfully shape your tooth, employ the precision of the CEREC machine for scanning, and complete the milling process in our on-site laboratory. The result is a flawlessly accurate, precisely fitted, and naturally appealing ceramic (porcelain) crown—all achieved on the same day, enhancing both the efficiency and quality of your dental treatment.
A dental crown is a tooth-shaped cover that fits your natural tooth’s existing structure to protect and restore the tooth’s function.
Where are crowns used?
Same day crowns at DP Dental utilize CEREC technology for a faster process than traditional crowns. Despite the speed, our CEREC crowns are precise and personalized, taking into account factors like your bite and how the crown fits with your neighboring teeth. It’s efficient, accurate, and tailored just for you.
During your consultation, we will assess your tooth’s condition, check for damage, and evaluate if a dental crown is suitable.
We may use 3D scans, professional photos, and X-rays to identify underlying issues and understand your concerns better.
If we find anything unusual, our dentists will discuss alternative treatment options with you.
Crown preparation is a procedure where our dentist readies your tooth to receive a dental crown.
We carefully remove any decay and reshape the underlying tooth to make room for the crown.
The aim is to achieve a precise fit for the crown, providing optimal protection and strength for your tooth.
Using CAD/CAM (Computer-Aided Design/Computer-Aided Manufacturing) software, we create a virtual model of your tooth on a computer, adjusting the design for shape, size, and bite alignment to ensure a perfect fit.
Once the virtual design is ready, the CAD software communicates with a milling machine (CAM) to craft your crown with precision.
Using the CEREC machine, we craft your crown from strong, durable ceramic, perfectly matched to the colour, shape, and size of your neighbouring teeth.
We add swift artistic touches to ensure your crown looks like your real tooth. Once completed, your crown undergoes strengthening and decontamination in a specialised furnace for optimal durability.
Your dentist conducts a thorough check to confirm the crown fits precisely on your tooth and seamlessly integrates with your surrounding teeth.
Once the fit is perfect, the crown undergoes meticulous cleaning and conditioning. We then utilise advanced dental adhesives to securely and permanently affix the crown in its designated position.
A same-day crown lets you receive your crown in just one appointment, typically lasting about 2 hours. In contrast, traditional crowns involve more preparation and time.
Opting for traditional crowns means having temporary crowns for 2-3 weeks until the lab completes the crown. Temporary crowns can be uncomfortable, prone to shifting, and may not fit properly, potentially leading to tooth decay.
Choosing same day crowns can also save you money by avoiding extra costs for additional dental appointments needed with traditional or temporary crowns.
Same-day CEREC crowns, crafted exclusively from ceramic, are proven to be exceptionally strong. Studies show that well-maintained ceramic CEREC crowns can last equally long or even longer than traditional ones.
For dental emergencies involving cracked or broken teeth, same day crowns provide an immediate solution, preventing further damage and addressing the issue promptly.
At DP Dental, our in-house lab ensures meticulous quality control, matching the standards of traditional crowns from external dental laboratories.

Unlike traditional methods that require a two-week wait for crown fabrication, our onsite dental laboratory, equipped with advanced 3D milling technology, can craft a personalised porcelain crown in just 3-4 hours. Say goodbye to the inconvenience of waiting or dealing with temporary crowns that may pose the risk of falling off and causing tooth sensitivity.
We have put together a team of exceptionally skilled clinicians who believe in solving problems at their root cause. We believe prevention is better than cure and practise this by implementing early interventions. We continually set aside time for education to train the team to provide safe and predictable treatment to all our clients
We constantly look for adopting new technologies to maintain high standards of patient care. For instance, we design dental crowns using CAM/CAD systems. During orthodontic and restorative workups, we use 3D X-rays and dental microscopes to look for hidden details in your teeth.
