Same-Day DentistryBeautiful, Long-Lasting Restorations in Just One Appointment
At Family Dental Center, we know that dental care shouldn’t interrupt your busy life. Between work, family, and everything else you have on your plate, finding time for multiple dental visits can be a challenge. That’s why Dr. Mircea Mitu offers same-day dentistry, a modern approach that allows you to repair or restore your smile in just a single visit.
With the help of state-of-the-art digital imaging and in-office milling technology, we can create custom, high-quality restorations such as crowns, veneers, and onlays without sending them to an outside lab. The result? You’ll walk out the same day with a fully functional, natural-looking smile, no temporary restorations or second appointments required.
What Is Same-Day Dentistry?
Same-day dentistry uses computer-aided design and manufacturing (CAD/CAM) technology to scan, design, and craft your new restoration right here in our office. Instead of taking messy impressions and waiting weeks for a dental lab to finish your crown or veneer, Dr. Mitu can design your restoration digitally and produce it from durable ceramic material in a matter of hours.
This approach offers exceptional precision and comfort. Every restoration is carefully shaped to fit your bite and blend seamlessly with the rest of your teeth. The entire process, from scanning to placement, takes place in one appointment, allowing you to save time without sacrificing quality.

Frequently Asked Questions About Same Day Dentistry.
How long does it take to get a same-day restoration?
Same-day restorations mean exactly that. They can be completed in a single visit, meaning you walk in with a flawed smile and leave with a fully restored smile. Same-day restorations are popular with patients with demanding schedules, though anyone can be a candidate. Whether you are a busy executive, a new mom with little time to yourself, or just want a convenient solution, same-day restorations offer an excellent option.
Does getting same-day restorations hurt?
Not at the Family Dental Center of Manteca. Our dentist uses gentle techniques and effective anesthetics to ensure a comfortable experience. Patients describe the sensation as mild pressure, not pain.
Depending on the procedure, you may experience mild sensitivity and soreness after treatment. However, any discomfort is short-lived, and we’ll provide aftercare tips to ensure a seamless experience.
Do same-day restorations look natural?
Yes. Same-day restorations aren’t just about speed. They are designed with digital imaging technology and premium materials to match the exact shape, color, and size of your natural teeth. The result is a restoration that integrates seamlessly with your smile. That means your restoration will be virtually undetectable even when placed in visible areas, such as front teeth.Â
Are same-day restorations durable?
Speed doesn’t mean we compromise on quality. Whether it’s a single-visit crown, bridge, or another restoration, we help deliver long-lasting results. With proper maintenance, same-day restorations last as many years as their traditional counterparts. So, you are not just committing to convenient dental care—we help achieve restorations that last many years, providing fantastic value for your investment.
Are same-day restorations costly?
The cost of same-day restorations can vary depending on the complexity of the case and the tooth being treated. While pricing is often comparable to traditional restorations, the added convenience of completing treatment in one visit is a significant benefit for many patients.
What should I do if my dental crown falls off?
Our same-day restorations are secured with durable adhesives to deliver secure, long-lasting results. However, your crown can loosen or even fall off due to trauma, natural wear, or decay of the underlying tooth. When this happens, contact our dentist as soon as possible. In the meantime, avoid chewing on the affected side and keep the crown safe if you can recover it. Our team will assess the situation and recommend replacement or reattachment.
Are same-day restorations suitable for every case?
While many patients can benefit from same-day restorations, not all cases are ideal for this innovative dental care. In rare cases, complex cases may require traditional laboratory-made crowns. At our office, we will openly discuss your options and help you choose the option that best suits your needs.Â
Does insurance cover same-day restorations?
Insurance coverage depends on the procedure, not the technology used. Your insurance will likely cover your treatment if it’s deemed medically necessary to restore function. However, since every coverage plan is unique, our team will help verify your benefits so you can plan accordingly.
