Frequently Asked Questions:
How are single-visit crowns different from traditional crowns?
Single-visit crowns differ from traditional crowns in timeframe and process. Single-visit crowns are completed in one visit using CAD/CAM technology for immediate placement, eliminating temporary crowns. Traditional crowns require multiple visits for preparation, impressions, and placement, taking weeks to complete. They involve manual impressions, often need temporary crowns, and may require adjustments. Both methods yield high-quality results, but single-visit crowns offer a quicker and more convenient option with immediate results.
How does the technology work?
Our practice is outfitted with a computer-assisted design/computer-assisted manufacturing (CAD/CAM) system known as the glidewell.io™ In-Office Solution. This digital workflow starts with the use of an intraoral scanner to get a fast, detailed scan of your mouth. Next, we use AI-enhanced specialized software to design your restoration. The final step is to fabricate the dental restoration using a mill, which functions like a 3D printer to create crowns or veneers.
