Same Day Crowns & Bridges
Restore Your Smile with Convenient Same Day Crowns & Bridges
At Winchester Dental Group, we understand the importance of a beautiful, functional smile. Our same day crowns and bridges offer a convenient and efficient solution for restoring damaged or missing teeth. Using advanced technology, we can create and place custom restorations in just one visit, allowing you to leave our office with a fully restored smile.
Waiting weeks for a dental crown or bridge while wearing an uncomfortable temporary restoration used to be an unavoidable part of restorative dental treatment, leaving patients to navigate important meetings, social events, and daily meals with provisional teeth that could slip, break, or simply feel awkward. The multiple appointments required for traditional crown and bridge procedures often meant taking time off work, rearranging schedules, and dealing with the inconvenience of lengthy treatment timelines that stretched over several weeks or even months.
At Winchester Dental Group, we’ve revolutionized the crown and bridge experience through advanced same-day technology that allows us to design, create, and place your permanent restoration in a single appointment. Our restorative dentistry team, led by Dr. Matthew King and Dr. Andrew Arriola, utilizes cutting-edge CAD/CAM technology to provide beautiful, durable crowns and bridges that restore both the function and appearance of your teeth while respecting your busy schedule. We’re committed to helping patients throughout Winchester, Temecula, and surrounding communities receive exceptional dental care that fits seamlessly into their lives.
Revolutionary Same-Day Technology
Same-day crown and bridge technology represents one of the most significant advances in modern dentistry, transforming what was once a multi-week process into a convenient single-appointment experience. This remarkable technology combines precision digital scanning, computer-aided design, and in-office milling to create custom restorations that match the exact specifications of your teeth and bite. The result is a permanent restoration that’s ready to function immediately, eliminating the need for temporary crowns and multiple appointments.
The process begins with advanced digital scanning that captures incredibly detailed three-dimensional images of your prepared tooth and surrounding structures. These digital impressions are far more accurate than traditional putty impressions and much more comfortable for patients, eliminating the gagging and discomfort often associated with conventional impression materials. The digital data is then used to design your custom restoration using sophisticated computer software that ensures optimal fit, function, and aesthetics.
According to the American Dental Association, crowns can strengthen teeth with large cavities when there isn’t enough of the healthy tooth to hold the filling, and they can also be used to attach dental bridges or protect weakened or broken teeth. Same-day technology makes these essential treatments more convenient and accessible than ever before.
The Same-Day Treatment Experience
Your same-day crown or bridge appointment begins with a comprehensive evaluation of your tooth and surrounding structures, followed by careful preparation of the affected area. We ensure your complete comfort throughout the procedure using effective local anesthesia and gentle techniques that minimize discomfort and anxiety. Once your tooth is properly prepared, we capture detailed digital impressions that serve as the blueprint for your custom restoration.
Digital Design and Customization
The digital design phase represents one of the most exciting aspects of same-day crown and bridge technology. Using advanced computer software, we can design your restoration with incredible precision, taking into account factors like your bite relationship, surrounding teeth, and aesthetic preferences. You can actually watch as your crown or bridge is designed on our computer screen, providing you with a unique behind-the-scenes look at the creation of your custom restoration.
This digital design process allows for real-time adjustments and refinements that ensure optimal results. We can modify the shape, size, and contours of your restoration until it meets our exacting standards for both function and appearance. The ability to visualize and refine your restoration before it’s manufactured helps ensure that the final result exceeds your expectations.
In-Office Manufacturing
Once your restoration design is finalized, our state-of-the-art milling machine begins the precise manufacturing process using high-quality ceramic blocks that are carefully selected to match your natural tooth color. The milling process takes approximately 15-20 minutes, during which time you can relax in our comfortable office while your permanent restoration is being created just steps away.
The precision of the milling process ensures that your crown or bridge fits perfectly and functions optimally from the moment it’s placed. Advanced ceramics used in same-day restorations provide excellent strength and durability while maintaining the natural translucency and appearance of healthy teeth. These materials are designed to withstand the normal forces of chewing and biting while providing years of reliable service.
Quality and Durability of Same-Day Restorations
Modern same-day crowns and bridges are manufactured from advanced ceramic materials that provide exceptional strength, durability, and aesthetic appeal. These high-tech ceramics are specifically engineered to withstand the demanding environment of your mouth while maintaining their appearance and function over many years of service. The precision manufacturing process ensures consistent quality and optimal fit that rivals or exceeds traditional laboratory-made restorations.
The materials used in same-day restorations are also highly biocompatible, meaning they’re well-tolerated by your body and won’t cause allergic reactions or other adverse responses. The smooth, non-porous surface of these ceramics resists staining and bacterial accumulation, helping to maintain both their appearance and your oral health over time.
Studies have shown that same-day restorations can provide comparable longevity to traditional crowns and bridges when properly cared for through good oral hygiene and regular dental visits. With proper maintenance, your same-day restoration can serve you well for many years, providing reliable function and beautiful appearance that seamlessly blends with your natural teeth.
Integration with Comprehensive Treatment
Same-day crowns and bridges work beautifully as part of comprehensive treatment plans that might include other cosmetic dentistry procedures or dental implants. We can coordinate the color and appearance of your restorations with other treatments like teeth whitening to ensure that your entire smile works together harmoniously.
For patients requiring multiple restorations, same-day technology can often allow us to complete several crowns or bridges in a single extended appointment, dramatically reducing your overall treatment time and minimizing disruption to your schedule. This efficiency makes comprehensive smile makeovers more convenient and accessible than ever before.
