Great experience at Smile Designers.  Felt entirely confident and reassured in the hands of Dr. Han and his assistant.  Not unimportantly, being terrified of needles:  Dr. Han is the best with syringes that I have ever experienced.  I barely felt it!   And Kim, at the front desk, is delightful.  Catherine Roseberry

Looking for a dentist in Leesburg? Look no further! My wife and I found them walking around first Friday. The folks are more efficient than any dentist office I've been too in the past and I've been to quite a few. Friendly, helpful, and honest. Exactly what my wife and I were looking for!

Same-Day Crowns with CEREC

CEREC machineCEREC technology has revolutionized restorative dentistry.

CEREC provides patients with a custom-made dental crown in a single appointment. Unlike traditional crown treatment, CEREC eliminates the need for a temporary crown. Skipping the temporary crown step is not only more convenient but provides better protection for your tooth.

After performing your root canal or other restorative procedure, the dentist takes digital scans of your teeth. We can design your dental crown before your very eyes using the innovative CAM/CAD software (computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing). Our in-house CEREC milling machine will then craft your crown in under an hour, allowing you to complete your dental treatment in one office visit. 

What should I expect during treatment?

Timeline for  Same-Day Crown Treatment 

Dental crowns are more effective and natural-looking than ever thanks to our advanced training and in-office technology. Here is what you can expect if you undergo same-day crown treatment at our Leesburg, VA, dentistry practice

Anesthetic

The dentist begins by administering local anesthesia to numb the treatment site and keep you comfortable during the procedure. We also offer sedation dentistry for those suffering from dental anxiety, or those who have difficulty sitting comfortably for a moderate length of time.

Preparation

Next, the dentist preps the affected tooth. This may involve removing damaged or infected tissue. Some patients might require a root canal. Then a small amount of enamel will be removed to make room for the crown.

Digital Impressions 

After the tooth has been prepared, the dentist takes digital impressions and uploads them straight to our computer monitor. Digital scans provide precise 3D images of your mouth, resulting in beautifully fabricated custom crowns. The software also eliminates the need for messy traditional impressions. 

Crafting the Restoration

The CEREC milling device carves your custom restoration from a solid block of ceramic. The machine typically produces the crown in under an hour so you can wait comfortably in the office without the need for temporary crown placement. 

Placement

Once the permanent crown is complete, the dentist bonds the restoration in place using dental cement. We will make any final adjustments to ensure your bite feels comfortable and the crown is in the optimal position. 

Don't put off dental treatment...

​We Strive to Save You Time and Money  With Accessible Dental Care

If you suspect you may need a root canal and a dental crown, it is best to schedule an appointment with the dentist as soon as possible. Unchecked dental problems may become more complicated (and more expensive) as time goes by. In some cases, the difference between saving a tooth and losing a tooth is just a few months.

We believe the cost of treatment should never get in the way of your oral health and offer flexible payment options to make dental work more affordable. In addition to accepting most major dental insurances, we offer in-house financing and take third-party health financing plans from CareCredit®.

Maintaining Your Dental Crown

Caring for your crown is very similar to caring for your natural teeth. We recommend taking a few simple precautions to ensure your crown remains beautiful and functional for years to come. 

1. Practice good oral hygiene

Brush your teeth twice daily and floss on a regular basis, making sure to take special care around the crown. Visit the dentist on a bi-annual basis for a check-up and thorough cleaning to protect the integrity of your restoration.

2. Be careful what you chew

While porcelain is an extremely sturdy material, it is possible to dislodge or crack your crown by eating excessively hard and sticky foods. Avoid chewing ice or opening packages with your teeth, especially if you are wearing a temporary crown since it is less durable than a permanent crown.

3. Minimize substances that cause stains

Crowns made of porcelain are stain-resistant, but your natural enamel on surrounding teeth is still prone to becoming discolored. To keep your smile a consistent shade, minimize darkly colored foods and beverages that are known to stain teeth, and ask the dentist about whitening treatments
