Using Technology To Provide Same-Day Crowns
Why should you make treatment a priority if you have a cavity? When dental decay is not addressed in time, the damage to your enamel can become so serious that you need more than just a dental filling to protect your tooth.

At our Bellaire, TX dentist’s office, we can actually create and place a custom dental crown in less time than other practices can require. With the technology in our office, we actually have the resources to digitally measure your tooth, make a design of your custom restoration, then produce it on-site so that we can have your oral health trouble resolved in just one visit!
