We’re the only dental clinic in Mona Vale that can fit your crown on the same day

For something so tiny, a compromised tooth can cause a fair amount of pain, which multiplies significantly when several teeth are damaged! Never underestimate the power a single tooth can hold over your body and self-esteem. No matter how good you are at putting on a brave face, there’s no getting around this discomfort unless you get a crown, which alleviates pain and restores aesthetics by filling gaps and covering the offending teeth. Most clinics still use traditional technology to create crowns, which can be frustrating because this makes it a lengthy procedure. When your tooth is damaged or decayed, the last thing you want is to delay your recovery, by dragging the restoration process over a few weeks. You can only hide your smile for so long!

Luckily we have the perfect solution: Same-Day Dental Crowns.

It’s now possible for our team at Mona Vale Dental to design, craft and place your crown (or crowns) during a single visit – thanks to our innovative CEREC technology which gives you instant results. We’re the only dental clinic in Mona Vale that can fit your crown on the same day that we design it! This means you don’t need to make multiple visits to our practice, which is welcome news since you can probably think of better ways to spend your time and money. We use the most advanced dental techniques and equipment to fabricate crowns that look so natural, nobody will be able to tell it’s not your own tooth. You might even forget that you’re wearing a ceramic cap since our crowns feel as comfortable as they look, as though they sprouted from your gums.

What you can expect from your single visit:

Dr Alistair Graham will scan your mouth digitally. This means there’s no need for the foul-tasting and messy impression materials that often make people want to gag! While you relax in the waiting room, our milling machine constructs your crown. We may then need to make some fine-tune adjustments to guarantee the perfect fit. This entire process can take around an hour. We use a special bonding agent to securely attach the crown to your tooth. This is all of it, completed within a day. No additional appointments are needed!

Some of the benefits:

Less discomfort and fewer appointments for you. You don’t need to wear a temporary crown as you wait weeks for your real one to arrive. We have more control over the results since we don’t need to send the design to an external company to construct. Our durable CEREC crowns can last for years, with the proper care. Your crown will be resistant to cracks and fissures since it was created from a solid block of porcelain. This makes it superior in strength to crowns made the traditional way. CEREC crowns look natural since they’re made from ceramic materials that mimic the natural prisms in tooth enamel. We custom-tint and glaze your restoration to perfectly match your teeth. Faster recovery time and we can immediately restore a tooth that has undergone a procedure, such as root canal therapy.

What are the risks?

There are few risks since this is a safe procedure using porcelain crowns, which are biocompatible and therefore accepted by your body. We don’t use metal or mercury. Dr Graham will speak with you more about what you can expect during your consultation.

What are you waiting for?

You could be flashing your newly-restored pearly whites at anyone who crosses your path – in as little time as it takes to read a newspaper, watch a movie or cook a nice dinner. In other words, no time at all! Contact us if you’re interested in getting a comfortable crown that’s functional and pleasing to the eye.
