Same-day crowns use CAD/CAM (Computer-Aided Design/Manufacturing) to create a crown out of a single, solid block of porcelain in just one appointment. The result is a crown that looks great, feels natural, and can be placed in 1-2 hours.
To prepare for the procedure, Dr. Randy will numb your mouth and trim your tooth. Then, he will use a hand-held intraoral scanner to take digital impressions of your teeth.
Dr. Randy will use the scans to design your crown. He'll then load a tooth-colored block of porcelain into the CAD/CAM machine which will carve out the crown based on his design.
Dr. Randy will remove the crown from the CAD/CAM machine, check it to make sure it fits, and then bond it in place to complete the procedure.

Need more information about same-day crowns at Houska Dental? Take a look at these FAQs to learn a bit more about how they work and why they’re such a great choice.
Same-day crowns are commonly used to protect and restore teeth that have experienced significant damage. Broken, cracked, or decayed teeth that cannot be salvaged with a filling can benefit from same-day crowns. Same-day crowns can also restore the shape, appearance, and function of damaged teeth.
You may need a same-day crown if you are experiencing severe tooth damage, decay, or discomfort. Depending on the cause of your dental issues, Dr. Randy may recommend a same-day crown or another restorative treatment.
Most insurance providers will cover same-day dental crowns that are required for restorative purposes, such as severe cavities or a broken tooth. If you require a crown for cosmetic purposes, such as covering up a discolored tooth, the procedure may not be covered by insurance. To make sure your procedure is covered, we recommend consulting with your insurer.
Wondering why you should get same-day crowns from Houska Dental, rather than choosing traditional porcelain crowns? Here are just a few benefits that you’ll enjoy.
Normally, crowns take at least two appointments over a period of 1-2 weeks or longer, since the crown has to be built at an outside dental lab. However, CAD/CAM dentistry allows us to offer crown treatment in just a single, 1-2 hour appointment. Whether you need a crown to repair a damaged or decayed tooth or you’re replacing an old, worn-out crown, this makes it easier to fit your treatment into your busy schedule.
Normally, you would get a temporary resin crown to protect your tooth while you wait for your final crown to be made. These can be bulky, uncomfortable, and unnatural-looking, and are more difficult to brush and floss. They also may fall off of your tooth prematurely. No temporary crowns are needed with same-day CAD/CAM crowns from Dr. Randy.
Many patients find trays to be uncomfortable, especially if they have strong gag reflexes. Instead of bite trays and dental putty, Dr. Randy uses a hand-held digital scanner to take digital impressions of your smile.
I actually love coming to the dentist thanks to Dr. Randy. Would highly recommend.
This dentist and his staff are amazing. I was traveling from Pa and broke a tooth. They got me in, extracted the tooth and were very reasonably priced. The staff and dentist answered all questions and were great. I cant say enough good about them.
My experience here has been without a doubt the best experience I have ever had with a dental office. Everyone here is friendly and they recognized me on my second visit! Questions are answered and concerns are addressed in a friendly manner.
