Same-day dentistry combines digital scanning, 3D design, and in-office milling to deliver crowns or onlays in a single visit. You avoid temporary crowns, extra numbing shots, and multiple trips.
While not every case qualifies, many cracked or weakened teeth can be restored the same day with precise, durable materials.
How it works
An intraoral scanner captures a digital impression—no impression trays needed. Software designs the restoration, which is then milled on-site from ceramic blocks and bonded in place.
Advantages
Fewer appointments, no temporary crowns, and a custom fit designed digitally. Digital files also make it easier to remake or adjust if needed.
Who benefits
Patients with busy schedules, dental anxiety about multiple visits, or who want a quick return to normal chewing often appreciate single-visit solutions.
Future developments
Advances in ceramics, scanners, and milling software continue to improve strength, fit, and shade matching—making single-visit dentistry more accessible.
