Advancements in Technology: Same-Day and Next-Day Crowns
Thanks to modern dental technology, getting a new crown no longer has to mean weeks of waiting. Many dental offices now offer same-day or next-day crowns, streamlining the process with digital impressions and in-office milling technology. This may reduce or eliminate the need for a temporary crown. Ask about same-day or next-day crowns at your next visit.

Cosmetic Dentistry: Frequently Asked Questions
Considering a smile makeover but still have questions? Here are answers to some of the most common things our patients ask about cosmetic dentistry at Happy Tooth.
Every smile is unique, so the cost of veneers can vary based on the type of veneers you choose and the number of teeth being treated. During your consultation, we’ll discuss your goals, evaluate your smile, and create a personalized treatment plan with a clear estimate of your treatment costs before moving forward.
Results from professional, in-office teeth whitening typically last anywhere from 6 months to 2–3 years, depending on your habits. Things like smoking, coffee, tea, red wine, and oral hygiene all play a role in how long your smile stays bright. Sticking with good brushing and flossing habits, along with occasional touch-ups recommended by our team, will help your results last as long as possible.
Most dental insurance plans treat cosmetic procedures, like veneers and teeth whitening, as elective, so they generally aren’t covered. Treatments that restore function as well as appearance, such as certain crowns, may be partially covered depending on your plan. Visit our Insurance & Financing page to see our flexible financing options to help make treatment more accessible.
It depends on the number of procedures involved. A single treatment, like teeth whitening, can often be completed in one visit. A full smile makeover involving veneers, same-day crowns, or bridges usually takes a few weeks, allowing time for design, preparation, and fitting your final restorations. During your consultation, we’ll map out a timeline based on your specific goals.
