Rosehill Dentistry values your time, offering same-day dental crowns to quickly, efficiently restore your smile and save you time in the dentist's chair. Utilizing advanced CEREC technology, our team can design, create, and place your crown in just one visit, saving you from multiple appointments and the hassle of dealing with temporary crowns.
Same-Day Crowns with CEREC
CEREC stands for Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics, and is the state-of-the-art technology used by Rosehill Dentistry to provide same-day dental crowns. This innovative system allows for the design, milling, and placement of a permanent crown in a single visit, eliminating the need for multiple appointments and temporary crowns associated with traditional methods. The same-day crown process begins with digital impressions, where a scanner captures precise images of your tooth, offering greater comfort and accuracy compared to physical putty impressions.
The CEREC software then uses these digital impressions to create a 3D model, which Dr. Rickabaugh utilizes to design a custom crown tailored to your specific needs. Once the design is finalized, the CEREC machine mills the crown from a block of high-quality ceramic material, all within the office. Finally, Dr. Rickabaugh fits and bonds the newly created crown to your tooth, completing the entire procedure in one appointment. The on-site CEREC machine at Rosehill Dentistry offers a convenient and efficient way to receive high-quality dental crowns, minimizing your time in the dental chair and restoring your smile swiftly.
At Rosehill Dentistry, we craft dental crowns from durable material designed to match your smile. These include:
All Porcelain Crowns
All-porcelain crowns are a popular choice at Rosehill Dentistry due to their exceptional aesthetic qualities and natural appearance. Made entirely from porcelain, a ceramic material that mimics natural tooth enamel, these crowns offer superior aesthetics with their translucent quality and precise color matching to existing teeth. They are highly resistant to staining, biocompatible, and can be custom-designed for a personalized fit. While ideal for front teeth where appearance matters most, they may not be suitable for high-stress areas like back teeth, so a consultation with Dr. Austin Rickabaugh is recommended to determine the best option for individual needs.
All Ceramic Crowns
All-ceramic crowns are a popular choice for dental restorations, offering a balanced combination of durability and aesthetics. Crafted from high-strength ceramic materials, these crowns are designed to withstand the rigors of daily chewing and biting while maintaining a natural and attractive appearance. The ceramic material used in these crowns closely resembles the color and translucency of natural tooth enamel, providing a seamless blend with your existing teeth. This makes all-ceramic crowns an excellent option for both front and back teeth, as they can effectively restore function and enhance the aesthetics of your smile. Their durability ensures long-lasting performance, while their natural look provides a confident and beautiful smile.
All Resin Crowns
All-resin crowns offer a more budget-friendly alternative for dental restorations, particularly suitable for temporary use or situations where the structural demands are less significant. These crowns are crafted from a composite resin material that, while not as durable or aesthetically superior as ceramic or porcelain, still provides adequate protection and functionality. Resin crowns can be quickly fabricated and placed, often making them a convenient option for immediate needs or as a transitional solution while waiting for a permanent crown. However, they are generally less resistant to wear and staining compared to other materials, making them a less ideal choice for long-term, high-stress situations.
Zirconia Crowns
Zirconia crowns are a top-tier option for dental restorations, known for their exceptional durability and resistance to wear, making them particularly well-suited for back teeth that endure significant chewing forces. Made from zirconium dioxide, a highly robust ceramic material, these crowns offer superior strength and longevity compared to other types of crowns. Zirconia crowns can withstand the daily stresses of biting and grinding, significantly reducing the risk of chips or fractures. While primarily chosen for their functional benefits, zirconia crowns can also be aesthetically pleasing, though they may not possess the same level of translucency as all-porcelain or all-ceramic crowns. Due to their strength and durability, they are an excellent choice for restoring molars and premolars, ensuring a long-lasting and reliable dental restoration.
Bruxzir Crowns
Bruxzir crowns are specifically engineered for our patients who suffer from bruxism, or teeth grinding and clenching, offering exceptional strength and durability. These crowns are crafted from a solid block of zirconia, a highly robust ceramic material, providing superior resistance to the forces of grinding and clenching that can otherwise damage or fracture other types of crowns. Bruxzir crowns provide a reliable and long-lasting solution, protecting your teeth from the harmful effects of bruxism and maintaining your oral health.
Lab-Fabricated Crowns
Lab-fabricated crowns are crafted by skilled technicians in a dental laboratory, offering a high degree of customization and precision for complex dental restorations or specific aesthetic demands. These crowns are typically chosen when a high level of detail and artistry is required, ensuring a perfect match in color, shape, and size to the surrounding teeth.
The process involves taking detailed impressions of the patient's teeth, which are then sent to the lab where technicians meticulously create the crown using advanced techniques and materials. Lab-fabricated crowns are ideal for situations where multiple teeth are involved, or for particular aesthetic goals like matching the fine details of adjacent natural teeth or achieving a specific smile design by offering exceptional quality and customization.
