What Are CEREC Same-Day Dental Crowns?
CEREC same-day dental crowns are a unique way to produce customized restorations while you wait. CEREC stands for Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics. Using this type of dental technology, Dr. Heesch can easily repair your smile in just one appointment. Because of the advanced software, we can avoid the cold, messy dental putty of the past and instead, take digital impressions of your mouth to produce your new and improved crown.
The Process of Getting CEREC Same-Day Dental Crowns
Our dentists will prepare your tooth in the same way they would if you were receiving a traditional dental crown. Once that is finished, we will use modern software to take digital impressions of your tooth. This will create a three-dimensional image that will then be designed and adjusted in-house by our team of experts.
As soon as we deem the model ready for creation, we will send it over to our in-house milling unit. Placing a single block of porcelain into the machine, it will begin to create your new crown. Once it is finished, we will remove it from the machine, look it over, and secure it over your vulnerable tooth. A final polish will help to make the tooth blend in seamlessly with your existing smile.
Benefits of CEREC vs. Traditional Dental Crowns
By choosing to offer CEREC same-day dental crowns, we are providing our patients with a quicker alternative toward a healthier smile. Some of the added benefits of choosing this type of restorative dentistry care include:
- Avoiding metal amalgam that can stand out and cause sensitivity over time.
- Allowing for customization during the creation process to ensure that it matches and blends in seamlessly.
- Quicker results that allow you to enjoy a fully restored smile in just one appointment.
- The ability to avoid wearing a temporary crown in between appointments for a regular, more traditional restoration.
- A cost-effective approach to restorative care simply because you are likely to need fewer dental appointments.

Unlike traditional crowns, CEREC same-day crowns are made on-site and can be fitted that same day

- Missing teeth or crowns
- Broken teeth or crowns

What is the price of a same-day crown?
The final price of your procedure will depend on the materials used and the complexity of the tooth preparation. At our office, same-day crowns with CEREC technology range from $1,250-$1,500. If you need a buildup, post and core, or root canal, these are billed separately. Our office offers third-party financing options through CareCredit, Sunbit Financing, and Cherry Financing.
How long do same-day crowns take?
A same-day dental crown procedure typically takes about 1.5 to 2 hours from start to finish, which is one of the main reasons Brandon patients choose this treatment over a traditional dental crown.
How long do CEREC crowns last?
CEREC crowns may last 10-15 years or even longer, depending on the crown’s location, its use, and dental care. A few tips to make your crown last longer are:
- Avoid grinding teeth and wear a night-guard if needed
- Visit your local Neighborhood dentist for regular check-ups and cleanings
- Maintain quality dental hygiene at home.
Are CEREC same-day crowns worth it?
CEREC is worth the money if you’re looking for a high-quality tooth restoration or crown replacement in one day. The convenience of just one dentist visit, plus the ability to instantly restore your mouth’s function, is a considerable value that traditional crowns made at exterior labs can’t provide.
