When you have a painful or broken tooth that needs a dental crown, the last thing you want is multiple appointments, temporary crowns, and weeks of waiting. At Century Dental, the process is faster and easier than ever.

Thanks to advanced same-day crown technology, you can walk in with a damaged or worn tooth and walk out with a beautifully restored smile, all in a single visit. Dr. Call and Dr. Simnitt lead with experience and compassion, ensuring your comfort while using state-of-the-art tools to craft high-quality restorations on the spot.

What Makes a Same-Day Crown Possible?

Gone are the days of messy impressions and long wait times. At Century Dental, we use cutting-edge CAD/CAM (computer-aided design and manufacturing) to create your dental crown during your appointment. This efficient system means there’s no need for a second visit or a temporary crown. Here’s how the process works:

  • Digital Imaging: We scan your tooth with precision digital tools, skipping the need for traditional molds.
  • Instant Design: The crown is designed right there in the office, tailored to your tooth’s exact shape and contour.
  • On-Site Milling: Our in-house machine mills your crown from durable ceramic while you wait comfortably.
  • Same-Day Placement: Your crown is bonded securely, all in one visit, saving you time and hassle.

When Is a Same-Day Crown the Right Choice?

Not every restoration requires a full crown, but when one is needed, time matters. Same-day crowns are an excellent choice for patients with:

  • Cracked or fractured teeth that need immediate protection
  • Large cavities requiring more than a standard filling
  • Old crowns that have worn or fallen off
  • Cosmetic improvements for discolored or misshapen teeth

Plus, with same-day crowns, you don’t have to juggle your schedule for multiple visits. It’s an ideal solution for busy families and working professionals who want quality care without added inconvenience.

Comfort and Customization Every Step of the Way

At Century Dental, we believe that listening comes before treating. That means your same-day crown appointment includes time to discuss your concerns, explain the procedure, and answer your questions.

Dr. Call and Dr. Simnitt deliver care that reflects your specific needs, not a one-size-fits-all solution. Here’s what you can always expect during your visit with us:

  • Gentle numbing techniques and a calming environment
  • Supportive staff that guides you through each phase
  • A crown built and fitted with both function and appearance in mind

It's personalized care, powered by technology and grounded in over 25 years of trusted service to the Hillsboro community.

More Than Just Convenience, It’s Comprehensive Care

Same-day dental crowns are just one way Century Dental puts patients first. Our in-house membership plan offers preventive care and discounts for a flat annual rate, making treatment more accessible without the headaches of traditional insurance.

Whether you're replacing an old crown or treating a newly damaged tooth, our goal is to restore your smile as quickly and comfortably as possible. One visit, one beautifully crafted crown, and a long-lasting solution, all from a team that cares for you like family.
