Same Day Crown in San Francisco — CEREC Technology
Soothing Dental places CEREC same-day crowns at 450 Sutter Street in San Francisco’s Financial District, a short walk from Union Square, Embarcadero BART, and Montgomery Muni. We treat San Francisco patients who cannot afford two visits and two weeks in a temporary — visiting executives, busy FiDi professionals, and parents who need the appointment done before school pickup.
A traditional crown takes two visits separated by two weeks of temporary; a same-day crown takes one. After Dr. Saeidi prepares the tooth, we scan the area with a CEREC intraoral camera, design the crown digitally, mill it from a solid ceramic block on-site, and bond it in the same visit. The whole appointment runs roughly two hours. No goopy impressions, no temporary that pops off mid-trip, no second appointment to coordinate.
Same-day CEREC crowns suit most posterior teeth and many anterior cases. For high-aesthetic front-tooth crowns, layered lab-fabricated porcelain or zirconia is sometimes the better choice — we will tell you which on your exam. See our dental crown options page for the full materials comparison, and our root canal page if your tooth needs endodontic treatment first. Most PPO plans cover same-day crowns at the same rate as conventional crowns. Soothing Dental Membership Plan members receive a discount on the patient portion.
Same Day Crown (CEREC) in San Francisco
Get Your Same Day Crown in Bay Area
Even if you love your dentist, you don’t love visiting your dentist. We get it. For this reason, we can create a same day crown in our office. Using CEREC CAD/CAM technology, our dentists first images your mouth with a small camera. This means no gagging on an oversized tray full of goop! Next, we quickly design your same day crown using 3D software. We take care to perfectly close spaces and prevent food traps, while creating an ideal, comfortable bite. Finally, we mill that same day crown in our office. When completed, we cement it into place and you’re free to get on with your life.
Our Same Day Crown Qualities
We take great pride in excellent work. Each same day crown is made from bio-compatible FDA-approved porcelain. This material possesses the same wear rate and thermal expansion characteristics as enamel, which greatly reduces the incidences of fracture. In addition, we custom glaze each same day crown to match your natural teeth. This results in a beautiful same day crown that is so lifelike, you and your friends won’t know which tooth is artificial.
What is CEREC?
CEREC (CERamic REConstruction) CAD/CAM technology was developed at the University of Zurich in 1985. As of 2016, over five million CEREC same day crowns and dental restorations have been placed by 38,000 CEREC-trained dentists around the globe. Although this technology continually upgrades, the same day crown process is well established. In other words, you won’t be the first patient to get a crown in a day. At Soothing Dental, we first adopted this technology in 2005.
Your dental crown could be 50% off
Dental insurance often covers half of your dental crown cost. However, whether you have insurance or not, we have you covered. To make dentistry more accessible, we offer Soothing Dental Membership Plans. Our honest, straight-forward plans have no deductible and no annual benefits cap. This means you can get a dental crown or two, maybe on top of a dental implant or after a root canal, then later get teeth whitening and even Invisalign. All in one year.
