CEREC Same-Day Crowns & Bridges
A custom crown designed, milled, and fitted in a single appointment — no messy molds, no temporaries, no second visit.
Quick answer
CEREC technology lets Restoration Dental design, mill, and place a custom ceramic crown or bridge in one visit. We take a digital scan instead of a goopy impression, design your restoration on-screen, and mill it on-site in Clermont, FL — so you leave the same day with a permanent crown.

How same-day crowns work
Traditional crowns take two visits and a couple of weeks: an impression, a temporary, and a wait while an outside lab fabricates the crown. CEREC collapses that into one appointment — a digital scan, a 3D design, and an on-site milling unit that carves your crown from a ceramic block while you wait. It's then bonded the same day.
Why patients love it
- One visit instead of two — no time off work twice
- No goopy impression material
- No temporary crown to fall off
- Precise digital fit, color-matched to your smile
The American Dental Association describes crowns as a durable way to restore a damaged tooth's shape, size, and strength. As one patient said of Dr. Kasem's work: "very meticulous and thorough." — Janet H.
Frequently asked questions
Are same-day crowns as good as lab crowns?
Yes. CEREC ceramic crowns are strong, durable, and color-matched, and the digital workflow is highly precise. For complex cosmetic cases, our in-house lab can also hand-craft restorations.
How long does a CEREC crown appointment take?
Typically a couple of hours from scan to seated crown, depending on the tooth. You leave with the permanent crown in place.
Can CEREC make bridges too?
Yes — the same digital design-and-mill workflow produces bridges and other restorations, often far faster than the traditional process.
