Same Day Crowns and Bridges in Killara

Our Killara dentists highly recommend same-day crowns and bridges for patients who want superior convenience and comfort. With this procedure, you don’t have to wait weeks for the dental lab to create your crown. Instead, one full smile treatment is completed in just a few hours, so there’s no need for temporaries either.

We would recommend having crowns or dental bridges done the same day at our East Killara office if you need:

• Repair of a tooth with extensive decay or damage
• Coverage after dental implants
• Restoration of root canal-treated tooth
• Replacement of missing teeth

Getting Same Day Crowns and Bridges

So how does our East Killara office do same-day dental crowns and bridges? The process involves 3 quick and easy procedures:

• Tooth prep

Upon examination of your teeth and determining if crowns or dental bridges are for you, our East Killara dentist will first administer anaesthetics. This is to make you feel comfortable as decay is removed and the tooth is shaped to optimally prepare it to receive the restoration.

• Scan and design

After that, our dentist will take digital photos of your tooth and run them into the CEREC software. This will be converted into a 3D image so our dentist at East Killara can easily design your dental crown or bridge. All you have to do is sit back and relax as we combine artistry and technology to complete your restoration.

Once ready, a ceramic block will be milled in-house to the likeness of the design and, in just a few minutes, it’s ready to be bonded to your tooth.

• Finish and polish

Your dentist will apply your restoration to ensure a proper fit, appearance, and bite. Then, it’s permanently bonded to the prepared tooth before finally being polished.
