Same-Day Crowns
Southport Park Family Dental
Our Approach to Same-Day Crowns at Southport Park Family Dental
A dental crown is a custom-made, tooth-shaped cap that fits over a damaged or weakened tooth, restoring its strength, function, and natural appearance. Think of a crown like a protective helmet for your tooth, for teeth affected by decay, fractures, large fillings, or following root canal treatment.
Older crown methods which meant booking two separate appointments, dealing with messy impressions, and wearing a temporary crown for weeks. But thanks to CAD/CAM technology, we now provide same-day crowns in Southport, completed from start to finish during a single appointment at our practice in Southport Park Shopping Centre.

What to Expect During Your Same-Day Crown Appointment
Getting same-day crowns in Southport at our clinic is comfortable and efficient, typically taking about 1.5 to 2 hours.
1. Examination & Digital Scan – Dr Carlos will examine the affected tooth to determine if it’s suitable for a crown. We gently prepare the area and use a small handheld digital scanner to create a precise 3D model of your mouth, no uncomfortable moulds!
2. CAD Design – Your custom crown is then designed chairside using advanced CAD software. This allows us to carefully match the shape, size, and colour of your new crown to your surrounding teeth.
3. In-House Milling – Once the design is finalised, it’s sent to our onsite milling machine, which carves the crown from a strong ceramic block. This process takes approximately 15–20 minutes.
4. Fitting & Adjustments – We check the crown for precise fit and bite alignment. If needed, adjustments are made.
5. Polishing & Bonding – The crown is polished for a lifelike finish and permanently bonded to your tooth. You’ll leave the clinic with a fully restored tooth and a big smile!
As with any dental procedure, there may be risks such as sensitivity or the need for future adjustments. We’ll always discuss these with you before proceeding.
