Same Day Crowns
When a tooth cracks or breaks, it can be painful and embarrassing. At East Wind Dental Care in Hillsboro, OR , we believe our patients deserve to live pain-free and also reap the benefits of the top-of-the-line restoration services that are available to them. That’s why we use CAD/CAM (computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing) technology that allows us to offer our patients same day crowns. In just one office visit, we can return your smile to its natural state.
What Are Same Day Crowns?
Same day crowns use cutting-edge CAD/CAM technology — such as CEREC® technology — to build a permanent, custom-fit, natural-looking, metal-free restoration that provides the form, fit, and function you need. Traditional crowns entail multiple visits and the inconvenience of temporaries while waiting for the crown to be made and fit properly. With this advanced same day crown technology, Hillsboro dentist Dr. Merat Ostovar uses a laser wand to quickly, safely, and accurately create a digital, 3-D model of the tooth in need of repair. While you wait, the crown will design in the office using the CAD/CAM software. When the design is finished, the new tooth is created in an on-site milling center also right in front of your eyes. The CAD/CAM process eliminates all of the errors that add wait time with the traditional crown method.

Same day crown technology allows us to serve you better by turning what was once an uncomfortable, drawn-out process into an opportunity to improve and preserve your perfect smile on your schedule.
