Needing a dental crown no longer has to mean multiple visits and weeks of waiting. With CEREC same-day crown technology at Preston Dental Group, many crowns can be designed, made and fitted during a single appointment. With us, you can have your tooth restored sooner, without needing a temporary crown in the meantime.
Same-day crowns are commonly recommended when a tooth has been weakened by decay, a large filling, a crack or everyday wear. Using detailed digital scans, our dentists can create a crown that is tailored to the shape and appearance of your natural tooth. The finished crown is designed to restore strength and function while blending comfortably with your existing smile.
Step 1: Examination and Treatment Planning
Our dentist thoroughly assesses your affected tooth or teeth and develops a personalised treatment plan to restore your smile.
Step 2: Tooth Preparation
We carefully reshape your tooth to create the ideal foundation for a secure and natural-looking crown or bridge.
Step 3: Impressions and Custom Design
Precise impressions are taken so your custom restoration can be crafted to match your natural teeth.
Step 4: Restoration Fitting
Your custom-made crown or bridge is carefully checked and adjusted to ensure a comfortable fit.
Step 5: Final Placement
Once approved, your restoration is securely bonded in place to restore the function and aesthetics of your smile.

Getting a dental crown is generally not painful as the procedure is performed under local anaesthesia. Some mild sensitivity or tenderness may occur afterwards, but it usually settles within a few days.
Dental crowns should be cared for by maintaining good oral hygiene, including brushing twice a day and flossing daily around the crowned tooth. It is also important to avoid biting on very hard foods or using teeth to open packaging. Regular dental check-ups help ensure the crown remains secure and in good condition.
A dental crown usually takes around one to two weeks to be made in a dental laboratory. During this time, a temporary crown is placed by our dentist to protect the prepared tooth. The exact timeframe may vary depending on the complexity of the case and laboratory scheduling.
Dental crowns are commonly made from materials such as porcelain, ceramic, porcelain-fused-to-metal and zirconia. The most suitable option is selected based on the tooth’s location, strength requirements and aesthetic goals discussed during your consultation.
