Same-day crowns
A custom crown, finished in one visit.
No second appointment. No temporary crown. No two weeks of waiting. With CEREC technology, we design, craft, and place your permanent crown in a single visit.

Why it matters
Why it is better.
The old way of getting a crown meant impressions, a temporary, and a return trip weeks later. We do it differently. Using digital scanning and in-office milling, we create your custom porcelain crown while you wait, then place it the same day. Dr. Marino has used CEREC since 2008 and has placed thousands of these restorations, so you get convenience without compromising on quality.

What to expect
What to expect.
We take a quick digital scan of your tooth, design your crown on screen, and mill it from a solid block of ceramic right here in the office. Once it is ready, we fit and bond it in place. You walk out the same day with a finished, permanent crown.
Common questions
Frequently asked.
Are same-day crowns as good as traditional ones?

How long does the appointment take?
Most same-day crowns are completed in a single visit of about two hours, including design and milling.
