Cary Same-Day Crowns
Fast and durable dental restorations
A beautiful, strong crown in just one visit
A damaged, weakened, or broken tooth can make eating uncomfortable, cause sensitivity, and leave you feeling self-conscious. But the idea of multiple dental visits, messy impressions, and temporary crowns? That’s enough to make anyone hesitate.
At TrueCare Dentistry, we make restoring your tooth simple, fast, and stress-free with Cary same-day crowns. Using CEREC technology, we design, create, and place high-quality, natural-looking dental crowns in a single visit. No temporary crowns, no waiting weeks — just a durable, custom-fitted solution that blends seamlessly with your natural smile.
ow CEREC same-day crowns work
1. Digital scan
We take a fast, comfortable 3D scan of your prepared tooth with a digital scanner. No impression trays.
2. On-screen design
Your crown is designed digitally for a precise fit, matched to the shape and shade of your natural teeth.
3. In-office milling
A CEREC milling unit carves your crown from a solid ceramic block while you wait, so there’s no temporary crown and no second visit.
4. Placement
We bond your finished crown securely the same day. For complex cases, we may still partner with a trusted dental lab to get the best result.
