Quality CEREC® Same-Day Crowns in Fairfield
Over the course of a day, you rely on your teeth to speak, bite, and chew without giving it a second thought. Although your teeth are durable and can stand up to decades of heavy use, they're still vulnerable to damage. When your tooth's outer protective layer, called enamel, is damaged by tooth decay or trauma from an accident, it can weaken its functionality and allow harmful bacteria to enter its core. At the dental office of Thomas E Toolson, DDS, we're proud to provide excellent same-day crowns to help get your teeth back to looking and feeling their best.
We leverage state-of-the-art technology to craft high-quality crowns in a single office appointment, making them invaluable for patients with hectic schedules. Contact us today to schedule your next visit and get the Fairfield dental crowns you deserve!

What Are Same-Day Dental Crowns?
Dental crowns are one of the most popular restorative options in dentistry. On the surface, a dental crown looks like one of your natural teeth and is made of durable materials like ceramic or porcelain. However, the inside of a crown is made to fit over your natural tooth securely and comfortably with some adjustments. Same-day crowns are distinct from other crown options in that they can be crafted and placed in a single office visit. If you're unsure whether crowns are right for your smile, Dr. Toolson and his team are here to break down some of the benefits of them, which include:
- Convenience: The single most important benefit of same-day crowns is their convenience. A busy schedule can make booking dental appointments difficult and stressful. Our same-day dental crowns can be placed in a single office visit, which helps improve their accessibility for our patients.
- Natural Feel & Appearance: One of the most significant benefits of our Fairfield dental crowns is their natural feel and appearance. Our team will take the time to smooth out your crown so that it feels just like your natural teeth. Although you may notice it in your smile at first, over time, you may forget it's there at all. This also extends to its appearance, as the ceramic is made to match the shade of your teeth to fit in seamlessly with your smile.
- Improved Durability: Your natural tooth is composed of successive layers of hard mineralized material, including enamel and dentin. This allows it to stand up to decades of wear and tear while maintaining its structural integrity. Our same-day crowns are composed of durable ceramic material which can last years of repeated use.
Our Same-Day Crown Process
Our dental office has spent years improving our Fairfield same-day crown process to be as streamlined and efficient as possible. When you visit our practice for your procedure, we'll begin by preparing your tooth. Dr. Toolson will remove any decayed or damaged parts of your tooth and shape it in preparation for your new dental crown. We'll then take 3-D images of your prepared tooth to help ensure that your crown will fit to your tooth and will match your bite.
Once our dentist has your 3-D images, they'll transfer them to a CEREC computer where your restoration will be designed. Using the image, our CEREC computer will mill your custom dental crowns from a ceramic block. Once completed, our dentist will place it and make any necessary adjustments for a secure and comfortable fit.
Same-Day Crowns FAQs
Dr. Toolson and his friendly and communicative dental staff are more than happy to answer any questions you may have about our dental crowns, including how safe they are and the minimum age we can place them. Some of the most frequently asked questions about our Fairfield same-day tooth crowns include:
CEREC same-day crowns are suitable for addressing various dental issues, including misshapen teeth, uneven bites, cracked teeth, decayed teeth, and severely stained teeth. Our team will work with you to determine if you're an ideal candidate for same-day crowns and how they can benefit your smile.
No. During your visit, we'll match the color of your crown to the shade of your natural teeth for a seamless smile. Your same-day crown may blend in so well that it can be challenging to tell whether it's a restoration.
One of the most appealing aspects of tooth crowns is their durability. As such, you can expect your dental crown to last anywhere from 5 to 15 years. However, it's important that you maintain proper oral hygiene and regularly visit our dental office to help prevent and address problems with your crown.
