If you are missing a single tooth—whether in the front or back, or if all teeth have been extracted and the area has healed—we can restore it within two appointments.
First, we take a cone beam scan and an impression, which we send to the laboratory to fabricate a surgical stent and a custom crown. Once we receive all necessary components from the lab, you return for the second appointment. The procedure involves standard local anesthesia, though sedation is available for patients with dental anxiety.
In just two visits, we can place your new tooth, fully functional and ready for use.
