There is a tremendous advantage in restoring teeth with porcelain CAD/CAM same day restorations, as the tooth preparation is as minimal as possible as crowns/veneers are retained with very strong bonds and cement. As the tooth is being restored very quickly, compared to a conventional crown/veneer (which is normally a two week process) there is no opportunity for the exposed tooth structure to become contaminated with bacteria. This means less discomfort/pain after the procedure. Because these restorations are made from porcelain, they are very lifelike and are often less expensive than a traditional crown.

Andrea Clarke of Milford Dentists is the person to contact to make an appointment for same day dental crowns. The E4D unit can create very strong, beautiful porcelain crowns and veneers over a few hours in a day as opposed to the conventional two-week prep appointment then cementation visit time frame. Instead of trips to the dentist spread over a couple of weeks, with perhaps extra visits to re-cement temporaries that have fallen, your tooth is prepared and then digitally scanned. The resulting 3D image is then computer designed (CAD) and the new porcelain restoration is milled at Milford Dentists’ rooms, using a powerful computer driven milling unit (CAM) out of a block of porcelain. It is then characterised and cemented on your tooth, generally an hour or so later or later that day.
