CEREC Same-Day Dental Crowns – Sarasota, FL
Get a Custom Dental Crown Fast
In the past, getting a broken or decayed tooth repaired with a crown was a big hassle for a patient. They typically needed to make multiple trips to the dentist’s office, have a messy impression taken, and spend a week with an unreliable temporary dental crown while their final one was being made.
At Tindal Prosthodontics, this simply isn’t good enough for our patients, so we have invested in CEREC technology. This system uses advanced CAD/CAM software, and with it, Dr. Tindal can design, fabricate, and mill a completely custom-made dental crown in just one appointment. It’s able to deliver the same results as a lab-made crown in just a fraction of the time so patients can get back to their lives as quickly as possible.

How Does CEREC Technology Work?
CEREC stands for “chairside economical restoration of esthetic ceramics.” Using a small, handheld scanner, Dr. Tindal captures hundreds of images of your mouth, including the tooth in need of a dental crown, then sends this data to a nearby computer. From there, the scan is recompiled into a detailed 3D image. This can be used to design your permanent restoration entirely in our office!
Using a 3D imaging software to capture impressions of your mouth also allows Dr. Tindal to make subtle adjustments to the design of your crown before it is fabricated. This reduces the risk of human error and gives us additional time to craft the perfect restoration. Your crown is also color-matched to blend in with existing teeth, ensuring only you and our office know you had a crown placed!
Benefits of Choosing CEREC Crowns
There are many benefits to consider when choosing CEREC crowns over traditionally made restorations. For example:
- From beginning to end, designing, creating, and placing your crown only takes about one to two hours. This means you can receive a permanent crown in a single appointment!
- CEREC enables us to retain as much of your natural tooth structure as possible, unlike traditional dental crowns which may need more removal of enamel to place confidently.
- Typically, a temporary crown needs to be placed while the permanent restoration is made an at offsite lab. Since we keep the entire process in-house, there’s no need to rely on a third party to make your crown or provide a temporary restoration.
