Same-Day Crowns in North Bethesda: When Speed Meets Quality

Traditional dental crowns used to mean multiple appointments, temporary crowns, and weeks of waiting. But not anymore. With same-day crowns available at White Flint Dental, you can restore your tooth in a single visit — no temporary needed, no follow-up required.

If you need a crown and want to save time without sacrificing quality, here’s how same-day crowns work and why more North Bethesda patients are choosing this advanced option.

What Is a Same-Day Crown?

Same-day crowns are custom ceramic restorations made and placed in one appointment using digital technology. Instead of taking impressions and sending them to a lab, we scan your tooth with a high-precision camera, design your crown digitally, and mill it right in the office — all while you wait.

The result? A durable, natural-looking crown that blends with your smile and fits perfectly.

When You Might Need a Crown

Crowns are used to protect and restore teeth that are:

  • Cracked or chipped

  • Severely worn down

  • Treated with a root canal

  • Damaged by large cavities or old fillings

  • Misshaped or discolored

If your tooth has lost strength or structure, a crown can cover and reinforce it while restoring function and appearance.

Benefits of Same-Day Crowns

No Temporary Crown
With same-day service, you skip the messy temporary crown, which can feel bulky and fall off before your next visit.

Only One Appointment
Get everything done in about two hours — no need to schedule multiple trips or take more time off work.

Digital Precision
We use digital scans instead of traditional impressions, improving comfort and accuracy. The crown is milled with pinpoint precision for a secure, comfortable fit.

Natural Look
Same-day crowns are made from high-quality ceramic that reflects light like natural enamel. They’re strong, stain-resistant, and custom-matched to your smile.

What to Expect During the Appointment

We start by removing any damaged or decayed portions of the tooth. Then, we scan your mouth using a small intraoral camera. While you relax, the crown is designed digitally and milled on-site.

Once ready, we check the fit, make any final adjustments, and bond it securely in place. You leave with a fully restored tooth — no return visit needed.

Who’s a Good Candidate?

Most patients who need a crown are eligible for same-day treatment. We’ll assess the tooth and let you know if this option is right for you based on the size of the restoration and your overall oral health.
