How Same Day Crowns & Bridges Work

The revolutionary same-day crown process at Rappaport Dental begins with digital scanning technology that creates a precise 3D model of your teeth. Unlike traditional methods that use messy impression materials, this comfortable digital approach captures every detail of your tooth structure with remarkable accuracy. The digital scan is then transferred to specialized CAD/CAM software, where Dr. Rappaport designs your custom restoration to match your surrounding teeth perfectly.

CEREC Technology: The One-Visit Advantage

CEREC (Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics) technology represents the pinnacle of modern dental restoration. After your digital impression is complete, the design information is sent to Rappaport Dental’s in-office milling machine. This sophisticated equipment precisely carves your new crown or bridge from a solid block of high-quality ceramic material. The entire fabrication process typically takes less than an hour, during which you can relax comfortably in the dental chair. Once milled, your restoration is polished and bonded into place, providing immediate relief and a beautiful, functional smile.

Materials Used in Same-Day Restorations

At Rappaport Dental, same-day crowns and bridges are crafted from premium ceramic and zirconia materials, offering exceptional durability and aesthetics. These tooth-colored materials are custom-matched to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, creating restorations that are virtually indistinguishable from the surrounding dentition. The ceramic materials used in CEREC restorations are known for their strength, longevity, and biocompatibility, making them an excellent choice for both front and back teeth.

Benefits of Same-Day Dental Restorations

Choosing same-day crowns and bridges at Rappaport Dental offers numerous advantages beyond the obvious time savings. By eliminating the need for temporary restorations, you avoid the discomfort and inconvenience of wearing a temporary crown that may not fit properly or could dislodge between appointments. The precise digital scanning process also helps preserve more of your healthy tooth structure compared to traditional impression methods.

Comfort and Convenience

The streamlined same-day process means you’ll spend less time in the dental chair overall. With no need for multiple appointments or repeat anesthesia, many patients find the experience much more comfortable than traditional crown procedures. Digital scanning eliminates the need for messy impression materials that can trigger gag reflexes, making the experience more pleasant for those with dental anxiety. Additionally, Rappaport Dental’s focus on creating a friendly, welcoming environment helps ensure your comfort throughout the procedure.

Durability and Aesthetics

CEREC restorations crafted at Rappaport Dental deliver exceptional strength and natural aesthetics. These high-quality materials are designed to withstand normal chewing forces while maintaining their appearance over time. Studies show that the lifespan of properly maintained CEREC restorations is comparable to traditional lab-fabricated crowns, often lasting 10-15 years or longer. The tooth-colored ceramic materials also resist staining better than some alternative options, helping maintain your bright, natural-looking smile.

When to Consider Same-Day Crowns & Bridges

Same-day dental restorations are ideal solutions for many common dental concerns. If you have a cracked, broken, or severely decayed tooth that cannot be adequately restored with a filling, a crown provides complete coverage and protection. For teeth that have undergone root canal therapy, crowns offer essential structural support to prevent fracture. Bridges serve as an excellent option for replacing one or more missing teeth by anchoring to adjacent natural teeth.

Emergency Dental Crown Replacement

Dental emergencies happen, and when they involve a broken tooth or damaged crown, prompt attention is crucial. Rappaport Dental understands the urgency of these situations and offers emergency dental services in Jacksonville to address unexpected dental problems. Whether your existing crown has fractured or become dislodged, same-day technology allows Dr. Rappaport to provide immediate replacement without the extended wait typically associated with traditional crowns.

Bridges for Missing Teeth

A dental bridge is a restoration designed to “bridge” the gap created by one or more missing teeth. Traditional bridges require multiple appointments, but with same-day technology, Rappaport Dental can deliver a custom bridge in just one visit. These restorations not only restore your smile’s appearance but also help maintain proper bite alignment and prevent the shifting of remaining teeth.
