A same-day crown is a dental restoration made with in-office CAD/CAM (computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing) technology. At Goebel Family Dentistry, we use CEREC technology to complete every phase of tooth restoration, from taking digital impressions of your teeth to placing a precisely fitting dental crown.

If you have a weak, badly worn, cracked, or decayed molar (back) tooth, Dr. Goebel may use a same-day crown to restore it. Our in-office CEREC technology helps us craft a custom crown for you in one visit. The results are fast and natural looking. If you need a front tooth restored, Dr. Goebel prefers working with his ceramist to craft a highly aesthetic crown with a layer of porcelain that perfectly matches the translucence of your natural teeth.

Metal free Same-day crowns are high-strength ceramic. Unlike porcelain-fused-to-metal crowns, they do not provoke a reaction if you have metal sensitivities. And a dark line from the metal will not eventually show through near your gumline.
