Myrtle Beach Same-Day Crowns
A permanent, custom crown in a single visit
Restore your tooth in one appointment
A damaged or decayed tooth shouldn’t mean weeks of waiting and a wobbly temporary crown. With Myrtle Beach same-day crowns at Grande Dunes Dental, Dr. Whalen can design, mill, and place a beautiful, custom crown in just one visit. You walk in with a problem tooth and walk out with a fully restored smile.
Using CEREC technology and digital scanning, we’ve eliminated the parts of the old process patients liked least; no temporary crown to baby for two weeks and no second appointment.
The result is less chair time, less hassle, and less sensitivity.
FAQs
Are same-day crowns as good as lab-made crowns?
Yes. Same-day crowns use strong, high-quality ceramic and are designed with precise digital technology, so they look and function beautifully with the bonus of finishing in one visit.
How long does the appointment take?
Most Myrtle Beach same-day crown visits are completed in a single appointment. We'll give you an accurate time estimate based on your specific tooth.
Will my crown match my other teeth?
Absolutely. We shade and shape each crown to blend naturally with your surrounding teeth for a seamless smile.
Does insurance cover crowns?
While we're out of network, we file claims on your behalf and offer financing options to help. We'll review your estimated coverage with you before treatment begins.
When you might need a crown
A dental crown protects and restores a tooth that’s cracked, broken, worn, deeply decayed, or treated with a root canal. If you’ve chipped a tooth or lost an old crown or filling, same-day crowns are a fast way to get back to normal, often in a single trip.

A smile to share with his bride
For as long as he could remember, Terry wanted one thing: a bright, white smile to share with his bride. As one of our most dedicated patients, diligent about following his treatment plan and caring for his dental health, he was exactly the kind of person our team hoped to celebrate.
Using CEREC same-day crown technology, Dr. Whalen designed, milled, and placed Terry’s custom crowns in a single visit, with no temporary crowns and no weeks of waiting. Terry walked in with a wish he’d carried for years and walked out with the smile he’d always pictured.
In recognition of his commitment to his care, Grande Dunes Dental was honored to provide Terry’s treatment at no cost, as a gift to a patient who had truly earned it. Moments like these, and the smiles behind them, are the heart of why we do what we do.
This is why we do it
