Next Steps
Milling On-Site: The design is sent to our in-house milling machine, which carves your crown out of a solid ceramic block—right there on the spot.
Fit, Polish & Place: We try it on, ensure it fits perfectly, polish it up and bond it to your tooth. That’s it—you walk out the same day with your permanent crown in place.
