I enjoy going to the dentist... said no one ever ! However, your office makes the experience as good as it gets. Cheerfully greeted as I entered, all costs and charges fully explained, brought into the chair quickly. Loved that they checked my temp and made sure I had a mask on too ! Doctor came right in, on time, no waiting, was extremely thorough and explained my "problem" in precise detail while sharing the x-rays that were taken. Left the office feeling confident that I was fully listened to and that my upcoming procedure will be flawless. Great experience !

Myself and my husband are current patients and are very happy with Dr. Hollis. He has a great team of office staff and hygienists, easy scheduling, and he is thorough and knowledgeable if you have questions. We would definitely recommend him.
Sue R.
If you are looking for a dentist in the area, please check out Dr. Hollis. Had a filling replaced last week and the experience was easy. I sometimes get stressed with dental work so if you do you know what I mean. Office was professional and friendly.

Just wanted to say that I really like having Alex do my cleanings. She is great and very personable. She always asks me about my family and my volunteer efforts, vacation trips, etc. Makes for a comfortable and relaxing visit. I appreciate the time and efforts you are taking during COVID and hope that soon things can get back to "normal" or at least a new normal.

What Are Same-Day Crowns?

Same-day crowns are a breakthrough in restorative dentistry, allowing us to complete what used to require multiple visits in just one appointment.

Crafted from high-quality ceramic, these crowns are designed to match the natural color, shape, and size of your teeth, restoring your smile's beauty and function with remarkable precision.

How Do Same-Day Crowns Work?

The magic behind same-day crowns lies in CAD/CAM (Computer-Aided Design/Computer-Aided Manufacturing) technology.

This advanced system enables us to take accurate digital impressions of your tooth, design the crown on a computer, and then mill your custom crown right in our office while you wait. The process eliminates the need for temporary crowns and multiple visits, making it the perfect solution for busy families and professionals.

The Process of Getting a Same-Day Crown

At Kingston Bay Dentistry, we understand the value of your time and the importance of your smile. Our practice is equipped with the latest dental technologies to offer services like same-day crowns that meet the needs of our modern patients without compromising on quality. Our experienced team, led by dedicated dental professionals, is committed to providing a comfortable, welcoming environment where every patient is treated like family.

Consultation and Preparation

Your visit starts with a consultation to assess the need for a crown. The tooth is then prepared by removing any decay and shaping it for the crown.

Digital Impressions

We take a digital scan of your mouth, which is more comfortable and accurate than traditional impressions. This scan is used to create a 3D model of your tooth.

Crown Design

Using the CAD/CAM system, we design your crown to fit perfectly in alignment with your bite and match the appearance of your natural teeth.

On-site Milling

The crown is milled in our office from a block of high-quality ceramic, a process that takes about an hour.

Fit and Polish

Once the crown is ready, we ensure it fits perfectly. It's then polished and bonded to your tooth, all in the same visit.

Frequently
Asked Questions

Are same-day crowns as durable as traditional crowns?

Yes, same-day crowns are made from high-quality ceramic materials that are comparable in strength and durability to those of traditional crowns. They are designed to last for many years with proper care, including good oral hygiene practices and regular dental checkups.

Will my same-day crown look natural?

Absolutely. One of the significant advantages of same-day crowns is their aesthetic appeal. The ceramic used can be matched to the color of your natural teeth, ensuring that your new crown blends seamlessly with your smile.

Is the procedure for a same-day crown painful?

Our goal at Kingston Bay Dentistry is to ensure every procedure is as comfortable as possible. Local anesthesia is used to numb the area around your tooth, minimizing discomfort during the preparation and placement of the crown. Most patients report feeling little to no pain during the procedure.

How long does it take to get a same-day crown?

The entire process for a same-day crown, from preparation to placement, can be completed in just one visit, usually within a few hours. This is a significant time-saving benefit compared to traditional crowns, which typically require at least two appointments spread over a few weeks.

How do I care for my same-day crown?

Caring for a same-day crown is similar to caring for your natural teeth. Regular brushing, flossing, and dental checkups are essential. Although the crown is resistant to decay, the tooth beneath it and the surrounding gum tissue can still be susceptible to gum disease and cavities, making oral hygiene crucial.

Can anyone get a same-day crown?

Most patients needing a crown are candidates for a same-day crown. However, the final determination will depend on the specific dental needs and the health of the tooth and surrounding area. A consultation with one of our dentists can determine if a same-day crown is the best option for you.

How much is a same-day crown, and is it covered by insurance?

The cost of a same-day crown is comparable to that of traditional crowns, and many dental insurance plans cover them. We recommend contacting your insurance provider to understand your coverage. Our team at Kingston Bay Dentistry is also here to help with insurance questions and payment options.

Why choose Kingston Bay Dentistry for your same-day crown?

Choosing Kingston Bay Dentistry means selecting a practice that values your time, comfort, and satisfaction. Our use of advanced CAD/CAM technology, coupled with our commitment to personalized, quality care, ensures that your same-day crown process is as efficient, comfortable, and rewarding as possible.

Do You Take My Insurance?

Our practice does not accept MassHealth at this time. However, we work with many insurance plans and offer flexible financing solutions to help you manage the cost of your dental care.
