When a patient needs a dental crown, they’d like the process to be convenient and quick. However, traditional crowns require separate visits. During the initial visit, necessary dental work will be done and impressions will be taken; the patient has to schedule another visit to have the dental crown placed. Same Day Crowns in Ypsilanti MI are possible because of on-site fabrication labs, and they have the benefits listed below.
Speed and Simplicity
The biggest benefit of getting crowns the same day as dental work and impressions are done is that it is quicker. Because a numbing agent has already been given, the patient can receive the crown as soon as it is ready and they can get back to normal much sooner.
Convenience
Scheduling two appointments will require the patient to take time off work and go through the numbing and prep processes twice, which can be very inconvenient. Skipping a temporary crown cuts the risk that the patient will further damage the tooth. The last thing a patient needs is to make the problem worse, and having a same day crown placed can greatly reduce the potential for further issues.
Lower Cost
Multiple office visits mean more cost, as do extra procedures such as anesthesia and temporary crowns. When it is all done in one appointment, the patient can reduce their out-of-pocket expenses.
Great Durability
The crowns made in a dental office are just as reliable and durable as those made in off-site fabrication labs. Patients will enjoy the same kind of longevity they’d get with traditionally crafted crowns, at a fraction of the time and cost.
Confidence
Walking out of an appointment with a permanent solution to a dental problem can give a patient the confidence to laugh, talk, smile, drink and eat normally instead of worrying about a temporary crown. Along with the other benefits of same day crowns in Ypsilanti, MI, a patient can return to a normal life much sooner after suffering damage to a tooth.
