CEREC Same-Day Crowns in Calgary SW
A Convenient and Time-Saving Solution
We know your time is valuable, which is why we provide CEREC same-day crowns. Unlike traditional crowns that require multiple visits and temporary restorations, CEREC crowns are designed, created, and placed in a single appointment. At Westside, your Calgary SW dentist, you can leave with a strong and natural-looking crown in just a few hours.
Dental care at Westside is provided by Dr. Zubaida Hussain, dentist and Dental Director, in West Springs, Calgary SW. We follow the Alberta Dental Fee Guide and accept the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP). New patients welcome – no referral needed.
What Are Dental Crowns?
Dental crowns are custom-made caps that cover and protect weakened or damaged teeth. They restore the tooth’s size, strength, and function while also improving its appearance. Crowns help safeguard against further wear, decay, or breakage, keeping your smile both healthy and beautiful.
The CEREC Same-Day Procedure
CEREC uses CAD/CAM technology to design a restoration that is unique to your smile. Three machines in our West Springs clinic do the work while you wait.
2 – Mill
The CEREC Primemill carves your crown from a solid block of ceramic matched to the shade of your natural teeth. Milling takes minutes, not weeks.
3 – Fire & fit
The crown is glazed and fired in the CEREC SpeedFire oven, which strengthens the ceramic and gives it its final finish. Dr. Zubaida Hussain then checks the fit and your bite and bonds it in place.
Most single crowns are finished in one visit; bridges, implant crowns and some complex cases still go to our dental lab.
Who Is a Candidate for CEREC Crowns?
CEREC crowns are an excellent choice for patients with:
- Cracked, chipped, or fractured teeth – restores shape, size, and function
- Worn teeth – protects against further weakening or damage
- Discoloured teeth – improves appearance when whitening is not effective
- Large cavities – covers and protects teeth with extensive decay
Our southwest Calgary dentist team will carefully evaluate your needs to determine if CEREC is right for you.
