Beautiful Same-Day Crowns in Carmel
At Simply Smile, we know how important your smile's health and beauty are to you. Whether you've recently undergone root canal therapy or had a portion of your tooth removed, a crown may be the perfect option for you. However, traditional crowns take multiple appointments that can be challenging to juggle with a busy schedule. That's why we offer beautiful same-day crowns for immediate and long-lasting restorations.
Our practice has had the privilege of providing same day crowns to Carmel and its surrounding communities for years. Each of our caring and compassionate staff members strives to exceed your expectations from the front office to the exam chair. Additionally, we offer emergency same day crowns when possible.

Traditional vs. Same-Day Crowns
A crown is a restorative covering that fits over a damaged tooth to protect it from further damage or decay and restores its functionality. At first glance, it may seem like traditional crowns and same-days crowns are similar. However, numerous distinct differences separate the two. Our dentist can help you decide whether same-day crowns fit your unique dental needs.
Traditional Crowns: A traditional crown requires at least two appointments. You'll need one to eliminate decayed or damaged material and prepare your tooth, and a second visit to place your new restoration. After your first appointment, you'll be given a temporary crown to protect your vulnerable tooth until your permanent crown is ready. Special care is needed to maintain your temporary crown as it isn't made to withstand long-term use.
Same-Day Crowns: Using CEREC® technology, we can provide you with a durable and beautiful crown in a single appointment. Our CEREC machine creates an exact copy of your tooth from a ceramic block. The tooth design comes from a precise digital scan, so you won't have to go through the traditional impression process. We'll then place your crown and adjust it for a secure and comfortable fit. We also match your crown to the color of your natural teeth for a seamless appearance. You can expect your new crown to hold up to years of repeated use.
Do I Need a Crown?
There are numerous reasons that your tooth may need a crown. Whether you've recently damaged your tooth or had severe infection treated with root canal therapy, a crown restores your tooth's functionality and improves its appearance. Some common reasons you may need a crown may include:
- Restoring a damaged or severely decayed tooth
- Improving a permanently discolored tooth
- Completing a dental implant
- Securing a dental bridge in place
- Treating an immediate dental emergency
- Restoring shape to worn or unusually small teeth
Using CEREC for Additional Restorations
In addition to same-day crowns, we leverage our CEREC machine to make high-quality dental bridges and veneers. You can expect the same durability and aesthetic excellence level associated with same-day crowns. Our dentist will sit down with you during your initial visit to discuss whether bridges or veneers are suitable for you.
Addressing Dental Emergencies
Your tooth contains sensitive nerves and blood vessels that severe decay or damage can aggravate. As a result, it can directly impact your quality of life and leave you searching for immediate treatment. At Simply Smile, we are passionate about meeting your pressing dental needs with same-day crowns. If you're dealing with a dental emergency, call our office as soon as possible to determine when you can come in to receive your same-day crown.
Same-Day Crowns FAQs
We highly encourage that you ask questions about same-day crowns to determine whether they're the perfect dental option for you. Some frequently asked questions include:
You can expect your same-day crown to last up to 15 years. At Simply Smile, we have the skills and capabilities to repair your crown in a single visit for another decade of beauty and functionality.
No. During your visit, we'll match the color of your crown to match your natural teeth. Your same-day crown can blend in so well that it's challenging to tell that it's a restoration.
Not at all. With the help of a local anesthetic and the speed of our CEREC machine, you can expect your visit to be quick and comfortable.
