Same-Day Crownsin Lincoln, Nebraska
What is a same-day crown?
Same-day crowns are custom-made dental restorations designed, milled, and placed in a single visit — no temporary crowns, no waiting weeks. At VFD Innovative Dental, we use CEREC PrimeScan 2 and PrimeMill to digitally scan, design, and craft your crown chairside. This advanced technology allows us to restore cracked, chipped, or decayed teeth quickly, with exceptional precision and strength. If you're tired of multiple appointments at different offices, our technology-integrated approach ensures you walk out with a strong, natural-looking crown the very same day.

The same-day crown process
Comfortable digital scan
Your appointment begins with a comfortable, non-invasive digital scan using our PrimeScan 2 device. No goopy impressions here — just fast, accurate 3D imaging of your tooth and bite.
Custom design and digital planning
Using advanced CAD software, we design your crown right in front of you. This lets us customize the shape, size, and fit to support your bite and smile goals precisely.
Milling your crown
Once your digital design is complete, our in-office PrimeMill fabricates your crown from a solid ceramic block. This process typically takes less than an hour, and you can even watch your crown come to life.
Placement and polish
After trying in your new crown, we polish and bond it securely in place. We’ll make final adjustments to ensure your bite feels natural and comfortable — all before you leave the office.
