Bethesda Dental Care offers the convenience of one-visit crowns in Bethesda, letting you restore a damaged tooth in a single appointment. With advanced CEREC® technology, Dr. Herman can design, craft, and place your custom ceramic crown on the same day—no messy impressions, no temporary crown, and no waiting weeks for a lab.

Single-Visit Convenience

Life is busy, and we value your time. Our one-visit crown service means you only need one appointment to fix a chipped or decayed tooth. In roughly an hour or two, you’ll walk out with your permanent crown in place. No need to juggle multiple visits or take extra time off work—your tooth is restored in one go.

No Temporary Crown Needed

Traditional crown procedures require wearing a fragile temporary crown for weeks while a lab makes your final crown. With our system, that hassle is eliminated. You won’t have to worry about a temporary cap coming loose or feeling uncomfortable. Instead, you get a strong, permanent crown the same day, sparing you the inconvenience altogether.

Mess-Free Digital Impressions

Say goodbye to goopy, uncomfortable impression trays. We use a small intraoral scanner to capture precise 3D images of your tooth and bite. It’s quick, clean, and much more comfortable for you—no gagging on putty. These digital impressions are also incredibly accurate, ensuring your new crown will fit perfectly without the mess of traditional molds.

On-Site Custom Fabrication

After your digital impression is taken, we create your crown right in our office. Our CEREC machine uses CAD/CAM technology to mill your crown from a solid block of high-quality ceramic, all while you wait comfortably. It’s high-tech dentistry in action: you can even watch the crown being crafted in minutes. By handling fabrication on-site, we deliver fast results without compromising on quality.

High-Quality Ceramic Crowns

Just because it’s fast doesn’t mean you sacrifice quality. The crowns we produce in-house are made from the same durable, esthetic ceramic material used by top dental labs. These all-ceramic restorations are metal-free, biocompatible, and built to withstand normal biting forces. You can trust that your one-visit crown will be long-lasting and keep your tooth protected for years to come.

Precise Fit & Lifelike Look

Dr. Herman takes great care to ensure your new crown feels natural and blends seamlessly with your smile. We meticulously match the shade of the ceramic to your surrounding teeth for a lifelike appearance. Because the design and milling are so precise, the crown fits snugly with your bite. Most people won’t even notice you have a crown—it will look and feel like a normal tooth.
