E4D One-Visit Crowns in Plano Rebuild Teeth Fast
Traditionally, the process of receiving a new dental crown takes at least two appointments of a person’s time – one for the initial consultation and impressions, and another for the placement of the finished restoration. At Legacy Family Dental, we understand that accommodating this type of dental work into a busy schedule can be frustrating. Dr. McConnell is always looking for new ways to improve the care experience for his patients without sacrificing any of the quality they deserve – that’s why he’s chosen to invest in E4D.
E4D technology simplifies the restorative process of creating a new crown so that every step can take place right here in our office during one visit. You can walk in with a hurting or incomplete tooth and walk out with a beautiful restoration– no waiting required. Please contact our practice in Plano, TX if you’re interested in exploring this service.
What Happens During the E4D Process?
There are five basic steps:
- Dr. McConnell will make any necessary adjustments to the tooth we are planning on treating.
- We will capture a detailed digital impression of the tooth that is transferred to our computer system.
- Dr. McConnell will use state-of-the-art CAD/CAM technology to design your new, personalized crown and then forward it to our in-office milling unit.
- The milling unit crafts the new crown from a block of dental ceramic.
- Dr. McConnell makes any necessary tweaks to the finished crown and then seats it within the patient’s smile. You will be able to leave with a stronger, healthier, and more confident smile after only one appointment!
What are the Benefits of E4D One-Visit Crowns?
