Learning about new dental technologies, which includes same day dentistry services, is something everyone should do from time to time. There is a constant focus on improving dental services and all with the goal of making it easier for dental patients to get any necessary work done in a quick and efficient manner. Now patients have the ability to have many services performed in just one dental appointment instead of multiple visits.
What does same day dentistry mean?
Thinking same day dentistry services just may be the solution you need so you can get any necessary dental work you need? When you decide to take advantage of this convenient dentistry option, you can get the dental care you need without having to worry about spending a lot of time at the dental office. While not every dental office offers same day services, many now do as they want to offer their patients convenience.
Popular one-day dentistry services
The list below includes three of some of the more popular same day dentistry services patients are choosing.
Dental crowns
Placing a dental crown over a damaged tooth in order to keep it from becoming further damaged is a common treatment option today. Traditionally, a patient must make two different dental appointments in order to have a crown placed in their mouth. The first appointment is necessary to prepare the tooth as well as make an impression of the tooth to send to the lab, which will be completed in about three weeks. The second appointment is when the crown is actually placed in a patient’s mouth. Now, this can all be done in just one dental visit.
Dental implants
Many dental patients who are missing one or more of their teeth are now choosing a dental implant as a tooth replacement option. Traditionally, the implant is surgically inserted into the jawbone, which takes many months to heal. Once it is healed, the false tooth can then be placed over the implant. Now, patients can have the entire process completed in just one visit to the dental office, making replacing teeth easier than ever.
Dental veneers
A dental veneer is a very thin piece of strong porcelain that is used to cover up imperfections in the teeth, especially when they are located in the front of the mouth. Veneers are often used to repair chipped teeth and broken teeth, which require quick repair. Every veneer is custom made for each patient in order to ensure they are comfortable to wear and look natural. Traditionally, it takes about four weeks for dental veneers to be made, requiring two dental appointments. Now, veneers can be placed on just one day.
