What Is CAD/CAM for Crowns/Same-Day Crowns?
Tacoma Dentist
CAD/CAM technology, short for Computer-Aided Design and Computer-Aided Manufacturing, enables the creation of high-quality dental crowns in a single visit. This advanced system allows for digital impressions, precise design, and in-office milling of your custom crown, eliminating the need for messy traditional molds and temporary crowns. Using a small intraoral scanner, your tooth is digitally captured, and a custom-fit crown is created right on-site while you wait. The crown is then bonded the same day, restoring both function and appearance immediately.
Same-day crowns are ideal for patients who want to save time without compromising quality. The entire process is more efficient, comfortable, and convenient compared to traditional methods that often require multiple appointments. These restorations are made from strong, tooth-colored ceramic materials that blend naturally with your surrounding teeth. Whether you’re restoring a broken, decayed, or worn-down tooth, CAD/CAM technology offers a durable and aesthetic solution that looks and feels just like your natural tooth. It’s a modern, patient-friendly approach to restorative dentistry that allows you to walk out with a beautiful smile, on the same day.
