How Long is a Dental Crown Procedure?

Hi:Normally, if there is no complication from start to finish a crown procedure takes 60 minutes.Best,Dr. Maddahi

The amount of time to prepare a crown, make a temporary, and take an impression  and deliver the crown on the next visit is dependent on each individual  dentist.
Generally it takes about 45 minutes to 1hour and 15 minutes to prepare and, take impression, and make temporary . It will take about 30 to 45 minutes to deliver a crown.
Again, this can vary by each individual  dentist and whether tooth is in front or the back.
If dentist has Cerec  type machine, hen you t may get crown in one visit but would need to wait for your dentist to make the crown so first visit would be longer..

A crown procedure in our office entails two appointments.  The first is an hour long, during which we will remove decay, build the foundation filling, shape the tooth for the crown, and depending on your comfort, either take an impression or scan your teeth to send information to our professional dental lab.  You will leave our office with a temporary crown, and the lab then takes about two weeks to design your crown.  We opt to use an outside lab for creating the final crown as opposed to making it in the office, because they have the top-of-the-line team/equipment/materials to provide us with the best product.  Once the crown is done, you'll come back to see us for a quick 30-minute crown fitting where we'll cement it on for you.  Voila!
