Same-Day Dental Crowns in Boulder & Lafayette, CO

Before E4D crowns, patients had to wait days or even weeks for a permanent dental crown to be crafted. Now with E4D same-day dental crowns, a patient can have a tooth cap fitted and placed in just one appointment!

Our one-day dental crowns can save you both time and hassle. Instead of having to stick your teeth in a gooey mold and have a temporary crown placed over the tooth, you can experience a custom crown quickly!

The Magic of E4D Technology

We use digital scans instead of physical impressions to create your perfect crown.

Some machines that provide one-day crowns require the dentist to dust the patient’s teeth with titanium powder before making images. With E4D crown technology, you can get one of our beautiful dental crowns without having your teeth dusted. The E4D takes multiple scans of your tooth to ensure the image is completely accurate before creating your same-day crown.

Your experience is safer and more precise with Boulder County Smiles.

How Does E4D Technology Work?

Dentists are just like architects, we design structures that help people out! We use similar software to architectural design technology, called CAD, to design a crown that fits your smile.

Within our CAD technology, we will pull up the 3D scans of your smile and then engineer the crown to fit over the damaged tooth. This requires mathematical skills and an eye for detail, which both of our dentists are highly skilled at.

Once we have designed your tooth we can send it to our in-house crown mill. This is essentially a 3D printer. It will create your crown out of a small piece of porcelain. While it is being milled, we will prep your tooth for your beautiful new crown.

The Benefits of E4D for Your New Smile In Boulder

Cosmetic Improvements

The E4D one-day crowns are crafted out of fine porcelain that will mimic and match the shade of your teeth and will blend in so seamlessly that your friends won’t be able to tell you have a crown. With E4D technology, Dr. West can also craft inlays and onlays out of the finest porcelain materials faster than ever!

Convenience

There are just two steps to your new crown! You can come in for a consultation first, in which we will evaluate your smile and the tooth you are worried about. We will determine if you are a candidate for an E4D crown. This consultation is a quick visit!

After that, you only need to come in for one visit. The visit will be around 1–2 hours long. We will work with your schedule and can also do emergency restorations.

Comfort

Our crowns are comfortable in their placement and in their process:

We use digital impressions so you don’t have to handle sticky physical impressions. The scanner is quick and noninvasive.

Titanium powder during the crown process can be uncomfortable or in some cases dangerous. Our amazing system is powder-free.

We create custom crowns that fit snugly in with your other teeth. If your teeth shift and it becomes uncomfortable you can always come to us for an adjustment.
