FASTMILL SAME-DAY CROWNS
FastMill same-day dental crowns are created from a single piece of quality porcelain right here in our dental clinic. They are a fantastic way to restore damaged or cosmetically flawed teeth without waiting weeks for an outside lab.
Dr. Sasser is always thrilled to adopt technologies like the FastMill by Glidewell that make dentistry more comfortable and efficient for our valued patients.
What Are FastMill Dental Crowns?
FastMill is a computer-aided design platform coupled with CAD/CAM technology. The purpose is to create beautiful and functional restorations onsite and immediately rather than relying on an outside lab.
A dental crown is a tooth-shaped cover cemented over a treated tooth to the gumline. It is always shaped and colored to blend naturally with unrestored teeth.
Reasons You Might Need a Dental Crown
Dental crowns serve a variety of important purposes, including:
- Capping a weak or damaged tooth
- Concealing cosmetic tooth flaws
- Capping a single dental implant post
- Anchoring bridge teeth to healthy teeth
The Advantages of Same-Day Dental Crowns in Brunswick, GA
- Digital Precision—Part of FastMill technology means digital impressions. No gag-worthy pastes or materials in the mouth! Digital impressions are comfortable and more precise than the goopy pastes of the past.
- No Ill-Fitting Temporary Crowns—Same-day crowns mean you don’t have to deal with a transient restoration that may not fit as well as it should.
- Fewer Dental Visits—Your time is valuable. FastMill technology can get you the tooth crown you need without making multiple trips to the dental office.
- Natural-Looking Finish—No one will guess that you’ve had dental work. Your FastMill metal-free tooth crown blends seamlessly with your unrestored teeth.
How Long Do FastMill Dental Crowns Last
FastMill technology means same-day tooth crowns, but that does not mean sacrificing quality. Dental crowns can last up to two decades or longer, and FastMill crowns are no exception as we use a Bruxzir block that comes with a LifeTime Warranty.
Caring for your tooth crown promotes longevity. For example, brushing and flossing at least twice daily and visiting Dr. Sasser every six months for checkups and teeth cleanings keep your smile healthy and promote restoration longevity. Dental crowns do not require added upkeep. You treat crowned teeth like unrestored teeth.
It’s also essential to report oral health changes to the dentist, including tooth sensitivity or crown damage. We recommend never using your teeth or restorations as tools to open bottles or rip open packages. Additionally, wear the proper mouthguard when playing team sports and talk to your dentist if you grind and clench your teeth.

CEREC is short for chairside economical restoration of esthetic ceramics. It is a technology that allows your dentist to create quality porcelain restorations like dental crowns while you wait.
If you need a dental crown, you must first endure goopy impression pastes to create the restoration. Then you wear a temporary crown for several weeks, which may not fit or function as well as it should. Then you must return to the dental office to pick up a crown created by an outside lab.
CEREC technology streamlines the entire process. Impressions are digital, the wait time is the same day, there are no temporary crowns, and you’ll not have to return to the dental office for your final fitting.
Your dentist takes a digital impression, which is more precise than modeling material. We send the results to our computer for design. Then the specifications are forwarded to our in-office milling machine for fabrication and printing.
You walk into our dental office with a damaged or cosmetically flawed tooth and walk out with a restored smile!
Brunswick Family Dentistry is proud to offer CEREC same-day dental crowns to our patients. With same-day dental crowns, there are no uncomfortable impressions or lengthy waits for your new restoration.
With CEREC technology, we can take a digital impression, forward the results to our onsite computer, and then the design heads to our in-office milling machine, where it is created.
We create CEREC crowns from quality porcelain that matches neighboring teeth. As a result, no one will see a dental crown; they’ll only notice your symmetrical smile.
Same-day dental crowns can last for up to twenty years, sometimes longer. You must brush, floss, and visit Dr. Sasser every six months. This is true even if you don’t have a dental crown.
And like unrestored teeth, the better care you take of your restorations, the longer they should last.
