At The Dentistry Collective in Rancho Bernardo, we believe dental care should be convenient, comfortable, and cutting-edge. That’s why we’re proud to offer same-day dental crowns using advanced CEREC® technology—giving our guests beautiful, durable restorations in a single visit.
Why Do You Need a Dental Crown?
You may not think about dental crowns until you’re in discomfort, notice a chipped or cracked tooth, or your dentist finds something during a routine exam. Crowns are typically recommended when a tooth is too damaged for a filling or onlay but still salvageable without extraction.
In the past, getting a crown meant multiple appointments, messy impressions, and wearing a temporary crown that could break or fall off. Not anymore.
The Power of CEREC® Same-Day Technology
Thanks to state-of-the-art CEREC technology (Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics), we can now scan, design, and place a custom-fit porcelain crown—all during one visit.
Here’s how it works:
- Digital Scanning – No more goopy impressions. Our CAD/CAM system captures an ultra-precise 3D image of your tooth.
- On-Site Design & Milling – Your crown is designed and milled in-office while you relax.
- Immediate Placement – Your dentist ensures a perfect fit and bonds the crown right away—no return visit required.
This not only saves you time and hassle, but also eliminates the need for a temporary crown and reduces your overall treatment cost.
What’s the Difference Between a Crown, Onlay, and Veneer?
It’s a common question we get—and a great one.
- Crown: Covers the entire tooth, including the chewing surface and all sides. Best for teeth with significant damage.
- Onlay: Covers only part of the tooth, used when a full crown isn’t necessary.
- Veneer: A thin porcelain layer that covers the front of the tooth, primarily for cosmetic enhancements to front teeth.
At The Dentistry Collective, our team always prioritizes conserving your natural tooth structure. We’ll walk you through the best solution based on your specific needs.

Our modern dental studio in North County San Diego is equipped with multiple CEREC units, allowing us to deliver crowns efficiently—even for guests who need more than one restoration.
