Digital precision and same-day restorations at MJ Dental Office

3D Dental Scanning and Printing in Hialeah

At MJ Dental Office, we use 3D scanning and in-office 3D printing to give our Hialeah patients faster, more comfortable, and more precise dental care. Instead of biting into trays of impression putty, you receive a quick digital scan that captures every detail of your teeth in minutes. That scan feeds directly into our CAD/CAM design software, where Dr. Morales creates a custom restoration matched to your natural tooth shape, size, and shade.

Our in-office 3D printer then fabricates a long-term provisional dental crown while you wait. These provisionals are more affordable than definitive crowns and can last many months to years. When the time is right, a definitive crown can be placed for a permanent solution. The result is a functional restoration placed the same day that fits precisely and looks natural.

The Process

How Same-Day Provisional Crowns Work

The same-day provisional crown process at MJ Dental Office combines 3D scanning, digital design, and in-office printing into one streamlined appointment. Here is what to expect:

  • Your tooth is prepared and a 3D scan captures a precise digital impression in minutes
  • Dr. Morales designs your custom provisional crown on screen using CAD/CAM software
  • The crown is 3D-printed right in our office
  • Your new provisional crown is checked for fit, adjusted if needed, and placed
  • You leave with a functional long-term provisional that can last many months to years

The entire process typically takes about two hours. Our bilingual team explains each step in English or Spanish so you always know what is happening and why.

Frequently Asked Questions About 3D Scanning and Printing

3D dental scanning uses a small handheld wand to capture a detailed digital map of your teeth and gums. At MJ Dental Office, we use this technology instead of traditional putty impressions, which many patients find uncomfortable. The scan takes just a few minutes and produces an accurate 3D model on screen.

After your tooth is scanned, Dr. Morales uses CAD/CAM software to design a custom crown that matches your natural teeth. The design is then sent to our in-office 3D printer, which fabricates the crown while you wait. The entire process, from scan to placement, can be completed in a single visit.

Most same-day provisional crowns at MJ Dental Office are completed within about two hours. This includes the digital scan, crown design, 3D printing, and placement. You leave the office with a functional long-term provisional crown that same day.

A same-day 3D-printed provisional crown is a long-term restoration that can last many months to years and costs less than a definitive crown. When the time comes, a definitive crown made from materials like porcelain or zirconia can be placed by your dentist for a permanent solution.

Very comfortable. The scanner is a small, lightweight wand that moves across your teeth without any pressure. There is no gagging, no messy impression material, and no discomfort. Most patients find it far more pleasant than traditional impressions.

Many dental insurance plans cover crowns regardless of how they are fabricated. MJ Dental Office accepts Medicaid, Medicare, and most major dental plans. Our team will verify your coverage and explain any costs before treatment begins.
