Author's Note: Hiiiii yes tis I another six months later lol hope you enjoy💓

It was late when you woke the next day. The alarm clock by your bed flashed red digits– 3:00pm – and you only had a moment to float in the thoughtless peace of waking before a knot of anxiety settled in your stomach.  

While last night’s encounter with Pierce was still fresh in your mind – a little thrill of revulsion dancing through you at the thought – it wasn’t the cause for your nerves. Nor was it the constant worry over whether Laura and the other mutants were safe. No; the adrenaline mounting in your system as you stumbled to the bathroom to brush your teeth was solely a result of the fact that after a week of waiting, and briefing, and training your injured shoulder back into shape, the day of your assignment had finally arrived. 

You washed your face, drying it with a hand towel before dressing in the uniform you’d laid out the day before. 

You hadn’t lasted long in high school before taking to the road, but you remembered the feeling of walking into a room to take a test you knew you weren’t prepared for. This was something like that. Except you were surrounded by literal enemies, here – not just the disapproving gazes of teachers – and the stakes of this test were life and death. If you failed this assignment, would Transigen even bother keeping to your deal? Or would they decide you were of more use to them chained to a table in a lab than out in the field?

…and if you succeeded? You’d tried not to think about it. But how many lives might suffer the consequences of Zenith Lab’s scientist falling into Transigen’s hands?

You found yourself gripping the edge of the table by your window, your knuckles turning white as you stared emptily out at the view before you. The empty lot, where last night, you'd confronted Pierce. You turned away, massaging your temples. It was an exercise in futility, trying to predict the possible outcomes of your actions. For now, only one thing was certain: as long as you worked for Transigen, Laura and the others were safe. Or as safe as you could make them. And they'd been through enough. You squeezed your eyes shut against the barrage of horrible images your mind threatened to dredge up from Gabriela's video. You had to focus. 

Your mission was simple. 

The target was Zenith Lab’s complex, a skyscraper in the downtown core of Mexico City with a security system designed specifically to keep intruders like Transigen’s agents out. So, for the Reavers to gain entry to the building, that security system had to be disabled. There was only one issue: the security hub lay on the high rise’s twenty-seventh floor, and no aircraft could deploy an air team to reach it without being detected by the lab’s scanners. Something smaller, though–say, a winged mutant–wouldn’t trip those sensors. There was a reason Clark, the security coordinator, had had you memorizing floor plans for a week. 

It would be up to you to take out the security mainframe, allowing the Reavers access to the building.  

Seeing as I’m carrying this whole damn plan on my shoulders, you thought, sifting through the equipment you’d acquired from the recon manager– you’d think this job would at least come with dental. But no; just the slim promise of freedom for Laura and the other mutants, and an even slimmer paycheck. 

You pulled on the bullet proof vest and slotted the taser into its holster at your hip–silently glad they’d only given you nonlethal means of disarming the guards–then examined the final item in your kit. It was an armpiece, meant to be worn like a cuff around your bicep. Upon turning it over, the only identifying information you could find were a barcode and manufacturer’s label, and you scrutinized it for a moment before putting it on. 

A tracker? To make sure you stayed on course? It seemed superfluous, since you weren’t going anywhere with Transigen’s threat looming over Laura and the others. And since Clark had said you’d be out of radio contact until you’d disabled the mainframe to avoid detection, it couldn’t be a transmitter of any sort. What, then? 

You mulled over the question as you made your way through the lab’s stark hallways, even as you mentally reviewed the stages of tonight’s plan. Fly to Zenith Labs. Break in through the roof door, which would be locked but unguarded, then take out whatever skeleton staff were on the nightshift at the security hub. Finally, meet Pierce and his Reavers as they executed the rest of the plan, and get the hell out of dodge. 

Simple, if not exactly easy. 

The rest of the late day passed in the same gray blur as all your days at Transigen, different only because of your mounting anxiety. 

Nightfall found you in the lobby as a Reaver named ���Kills’ dispersed earpieces to Reavers who waited impatiently by the door or cracked jokes in groups along the walls. There were less than a dozen in total; all the same rough, macho-sadist types who seemed drawn to the Reaver corps like moths to a flame. You stood out amongst them like a sore thumb, even as you tried to make yourself invisible. It would've been hard enough to keep a low profile as the only non leather-wearing, gun-toting one among them, let alone the only woman, mutant, and goddamn avian. As it was, you tried to look as cold and disinterested as possible in order to repulse their attention. Pierce hadn’t yet appeared, and it was with a mixture of dread and anticipation that you thought of running into him tonight.

Finally the Reavers began moving towards the lab’s doors, and you followed them out, the night air quickly snapping everything into hyperfocus. 

It was a warm, humid night, and the sounds of the city felt alien to you after days in the quiet sterility of the lab. It felt like ages since you’d last walked a city’s streets, and been a part of that noise. Some part of you wondered if you ever would again. 

Three black trucks were parked in a line down the lab’s drive, and the Reavers were moving around them and climbing inside. Someone directed you towards one, and you climbed inside, pulling your wings in tight to avoid brushing the doors. 

There were five Reavers already inside the truck, and all glanced up as you entered, save the man typing away on a laptop. Their faces were cold and dispassionate, but beneath that mask, you recognized a plethora of emotions. Disgust. Hatred. Malicious interest. Once again, your instincts told you to run –that this was a tiger’s cage, and you were a fool for stepping into it. 

But these assholes aren’t hunting me anymore, you thought to yourself, forcefully. They already won. I’m here by choice.  

The truck’s door slid shut behind you, and you set your jaw. Go figures the actual mission would be the least of your problems tonight. These men seemed primed for a fight, and you could feel their sights quickly settling on you. 

“You can sit down here, doll,” a man with a thick bullet-proof vest and an abundance of side holsters said, grinning as he nodded to his lap. “C’mon over.”

You glared at him, and lowered yourself into the nearest empty seat. “I’d rather not catch whatever brain-eating disease you have,” you snapped back, “thanks.” 

“Damned if we gotta work with a fucking mutey,” one of the other men muttered, clicking his gun into its holster emphatically.  

“Hey, she’s on our side, now!” Another laughed. He had stubbled cheeks and a purple bandana tied around his neck. “Gonna help us take out her own kind, just like that albino traitor,” he taunted lazily. “Ain’t that right, girl?”

A hot flush of anger overtook you, along with a sudden sense of claustrophobia at the van’s tight quarters. They don’t get to fucking mention Caliban. For a moment there was a loud buzzing in your ears, and a tide of memories and pain threatened to overwhelm you. Then you shoved the thoughts of Caliban back behind their wall , and turned on the Reavers. 

“We’re not hunting mutants tonight, piss-brain,” you shot back at the man with the bandana. “Did you miss the briefing? I know reading comprehension is above your paygrade, but it’s a fucking scientist you’re after.” 

It felt good to see the man’s gaze darken. “Guess that depends if we find any,” he replied, lip curling in a humorless smile. “Who knows what they’re hiding up there?” He leaned towards you conspiratorially, revealing the line of tattoos that stretched down his neck below the bandana. “Me, I'm hope there’s a few mutts,” his smile grew colder, and his eyes raked over your face in search of a reaction. “It’d be nice to have a little target practice.” 

Heat prickled down your spine, and you didn’t break his gaze. You weren’t going to be baited by this asshole. 

One of the other men–the bald one–was smiling, too; the same lazy malice written on his face as he watched you. “It has been a while since we got some hunting in,” he agreed. “Heard those kids gave quite the chase. But I’m sure ol’ Wolvey took the cake.” 

Your skin flushed hotter before you could get a handle on yourself. 

“How many shots did he take before he went down?” The bald man continued, turning to the other quizzically as bandana-man pursed his lips in thought. “Fuck, gotta be two-dozen?” He smiled, turning his gaze back to you as he let out a low whistle. 

The tension in the truck was thick as tar, and finally even the man on the laptop looked up, glancing between you and the Reavers. 

The buzzing in your mind felt like it was growing louder, like a freight train overtaking you; and all at once, the hot, prickling sensation on your skin resolved itself into something familiar. Something like crackling energy, and an awful golden light lurking just beyond your fingertips. 

The blood drained from your face. 

“You know ‘bout that, feathers?” The first man was asking, leaning forward as if in earnest. “Naw, she wasn’t there,” the other Reaver replied. “Missed the whole thing! Gotta tell her about it.”

What would happen if your powers returned, here and now? If your Ether flared inside this truck?

You had no idea, but you doubted there’d be any survivors. 

And would that be so bad? Some dark part of you whispered, lulling you towards the crackling energy. To end this awful game, and go out with a fucking bang? To take some of these assholes with you? 

Some distant, reasonable part of you was shouting for your attention, but far nearer was the forgefire of everything you’d shoved behind a wall in your mind. It was rage, and fear, and months of unprocessed grief–and that dam wasn’t going to hold forever. 

Somewhere outside the truck, there were voices, and engines revving–but they seemed far away compared to the dark, taunting eyes of the men before you. One little slip, one burst of energy–and they’d be gone, and you’d be gone from this place. 

The stillness of the truck was shattered as the front passenger door swung open, and a familiar figure climbed inside, blond hair tousled from the wind. The man with the bandana leaned back in his seat, breaking eye contact, and the bald man smiled sardonically as he shifted away, too. 

“Boys,” Pierce greeted, his gaze roving over the Reavers before settling on you. “Playin’ nicely?” 

The heat was high in your cheeks, and the buzzing in your mind still grappled for your attention as you tried to regain control. Now’s not the time to lose it, you told yourself, trying to shove the energy back behind its wall. Not with so much on the line. You couldn’t be so selfish. 

You could feel Pierce’s gaze on you, and from the corner of your eye you saw when the man on the computer glanced up, briefly locking eyes with Pierce as they seemed to exchange some sort of information. Pierce sat back in his seat, sighed once through his nose, then swung back out of the truck. You barely registered it when he appeared at your side door, sliding it open and taking hold of your arm as he pulled you back out into the night. 

Too surprised to resist, you landed on the sidewalk, and he shoved the door shut behind you, suddenly cutting you off from the scene within. 

“What are you doing?” You asked dumbly, slowly returning to yourself as he shepherded you down the walkway. Pierce only snorted, directing you towards one of the other trucks. “C’mon, baby,” he drawled, opening its door and herding you inside. “We're gonna ride recon.” 

***

The inside of the recon truck was quiet as it rumbled through the city streets, lights and the occasional bright storefront flashing past outside. The radio played a late-night mexican station and the transceiver crackled with brief messages and replies from the convoy, while the man in the passenger seat watched what appeared to be a live feed from outside Zenith Labs. 

They were headed to a drop point, from which you’d get airborn and make your way to the building while the Reavers followed from the ground. 

Pierce was listening to the transceiver's chatter, judging by the tilt of his head, and idly adjusting one of the components of his mechanical arm as the driver wove the truck through the midnight streets. The Reaver Commander wore his usual fatigues, black t-shirt, and leather jacket; but now with the addition of a kevlar vest, and holsters on either side of his hips. He was ready for a fight; but then again, he always looked ready for a fight. 

Finally, Pierce sighed.  

“I spent plenty of time around soldiers,” he said conversationally, shifting back against the truck's netted wall. “After a while, you learn the look of someone who’s about to break.” He met your gaze briefly, knowingly, as he twisted the metal dial that was his forearm in a series of smooth clicks.

You looked away, trying not to think about what had happened with the Reavers in the other truck. How you’d almost lost control. So easily, so quickly–and still, how the energy behind your mind’s wall seemed agitated, like a pot of water on too high heat. 

“Seen it happen,” Pierce continued. “Watched ‘em puke up their guts, or run for home…usually at the first fight, or first kill. First time facing bad odds,” he smiled drily. “And I wouldn’t care a whit about you going haywire on us,” he sighed, “except I seen what you can do when you break.” 

That day on the overpass. A car wreck, and an explosion of swirling golden Ether. 

You winced, and you could feel your usual composure eluding you. You knew that bits of your feelings were getting through; the shame. The anger. Fear. There was no stopping them. You swallowed, taking a deep breath. The least you could do was try to settle your stomach. There was a chance you might lose control and vaporize someone tonight, but you were not going to puke. 

Pierce was unfazed, staring at you as he leaned back. “Thing is, baby-" His mouth curved in an unfeeling smile. “-there’s a whole lot of people riding on tonight’s little operation. So I'll thank you not to blow the whole thing sky-high before we even get started.” 

“I’m not going to jeopardize your precious little kidnapping mission,” you snapped back. “I’m not going to break.” 

There was a beat of silence, and you returned your gaze to the window as you ignored the hollowness of your own words. 

In truth, you were relieved beyond measure that he’d pulled you away from the Reavers in that moment. You didn’t know what might have happened if you’d stayed, and didn’t want to consider it. Stupid, perceptive bastard. As it was, you still felt like your control was balancing on a knife’s edge–and the mission which that afternoon had felt impossible now felt like a death sentence. If you wanted to get through this, you couldn’t delve into your feelings. You had to do –not think. Not feel. 

“I’m not going to break,” you breathed, repeating it more to yourself than anyone else. Pierce sighed through his nose, not bothering to argue the point, then leaned forward and tugged at one of the straps of your vest, unfastening it.

“Hey–” you jerked away in surprise. His lips twitched, and he rolled his eyes. “Let me help you, sugar. You done it up all wrong.” 

Your breathing grew shallow as he leaned forward, his hands working deftly to pull the strap from its loop.

This close, his stature was even more intimidating than usual; your entire world taken up by his tall frame and thick arms. As if sensing your thoughts, Pierce smirked. His face was shadowed in the darkened car, but you could feel it. Asshole. 

"Easy, baby. Can't have your gear on wrong, now, can we?" 

His arms encircled you as he crossed the straps behind your back, and for a moment the warmth of his biceps pressed into your shoulders, and you could smell the musky, cheap scent of his aftershave. You turned your eyes skyward, ignoring the proximity of his neck and jaw, and tried to keep your thoughts from straying inevitably towards last night. Futilely. Your cheeks reddened. 

Then he was before you once more, fastening the straps tightly; his face shadowed, though the flash of the streetlamps illuminated the skull and crossbones inked across his neck. You made a mental note to mention to him how tacky the tattoo was, as soon as you'd regained your focus. Right now, you were too distracted; torn somewhere between the vile, magnetic pull of him, and the unnervingness of his physicality. Even without his robotic arm, he was frighteningly strong-and exactly the wrong kind of person to wield that power.

Still, his proximity calmed a small part of you by some infinitesimal amount. For even after witnessing your near loss of control, Donald Pierce didn’t seem scared of you. And in some way, that helped you feel less scared of yourself. Even if his character tended to counteract that effect. 

He finished with the vest, and you took a breath, nerves zinging as he leaned away. 

“There you go, sweetheart. All good,” he said, half mocking.

You thought his assessment over, but then his gaze fell to your arm. You’d almost forgotten the armband, but Pierce reached forward to grip your bicep, turning it into his view. His hands were firm; clinical in their assessment, but still the smirk remained. 

“No one told you how to put the damn thing on?” He asked, fiddling with something on the armband so that it clicked more firmly into place. 

“I didn’t exactly get workplace training,” you shot back, trying to keep your voice steady and unbothered by your racing heart.

The truck was beginning to slow, finally, and you examined the sharp lines of his face in the halflight. “What is that thing, anyway?”

Pierce sat back, finally widening the space between you as he took his radio from the wall, slotting it into his belt. 

“Technical,” he replied. “Keeps your gear from emitting frequencies scanners might pick up while you’re on the way in.” 

You processed this information, idly straightening your shirt as the van rolled to a stop. Sometimes it was easy to forget that beyond the gun-obsessed, vaping, muscle-shirt wearing exterior, Pierce was smart. You'd worked as a mechanic, and were a dab hand at fixing basic wiring and the like-but Pierce was on another level. He'd designed his own mechanical arm out of advanced robotics, along with the enhancements on other Reavers-and seemed to have a disturbingly good understanding of things like energy signatures and transmissions. Power, in the worst possible hands. 

You heard other engines cutting off outside, and Pierce leaned forwards, pulling open the truck's side door as the night wind rushed in. You climbed unsteadily out, wings flaring for balance as you found your footing on the rocky ground. 

The place where the trucks had stopped appeared to be a dusty, dead-end road, slightly elevated from the rest of the city by a small hill. It was bordered on one side by a chainlink fence, and on the other by a grassy expanse which led down towards the roofs of some houses. 

“Now, you do what you gotta do to hold up your end of the bargain tonight, sugar,” Pierce said, swinging out of the truck after you. “No room for anything else. We’re gonna be right behind you.” He grinned. “In spirit, if not in the flesh.” 

The truck stopped across from you was the one from before, and as you watched, the Reavers from within climbed out to lean against the doors or hang from the windows. Purple bandana leaned against its side, while the bald man watched from the open door. His gaze was gloating, but you ignored it. Still, you couldn't shake the feeling that they were all watching you-sizing you up; as if waiting for something.

Pierce leaned against the recon truck, his tall frame impossible to ignore at your back; and you realized what they were all waiting for. 

You. Of course they were going to watch you take off; for you were a freak, and they had front row seats to the show.

A pang of anxiety shot through you at the thought. You'd always known how much the Reavers hated you; hated all mutants-but it was a different beast to feel it. This was truly what you were to them. An aberration; some strange, depraved mistake that nature made, and on which they had the chance to profit. You didn't feel confidant under their scrutiny, but you sure as hell weren't going to show them how much it rattled you.

Might as well make it worth their while, you thought, jaw clenching. You took a few anticipatory breaths, and bounced on the balls of your feet as you worked up your courage.

Just do. Don’t think. Don’t feel. Take the damn sociopath's advice, and do what you have to do to get through the night. 

“Catch you on the other side,” Pierce grinned, wolflike in the darkness. 

Without waiting to reply, you took a running start towards the grassy slope. The air was cool on your hot cheeks as you sprinted, leaving all thought behind. The chainlink fence and red roofs of the houses at the bottom of the slope grew nearer, and then your feet left the ground, and the sudden sensation of weightlessness hit you like a wall as your wings fanned out on either side. 

They’d chosen a good take-off point. The natural updraft of the hill caught you almost immediately, carrying you effortlessly up and away from the shrinking roofs. 

Your newly-healed muscles ached at the exertion, but the ache was dull, dampened by the sudden thrill of flight. It felt like leaving it all behind; like escaping the tethers of your mind, and throwing fear to the wind. 

How long had it been, since you really flew ? But you couldn’t think about that now; only the task ahead. 

Far below, truck doors slammed as Reavers climbed back inside and the black vans pulled away from the drop point. And high above, you wheeled towards the city; focus honed to a single point of intent as you worked to pick out the dark shape of one specific skyscraper among the rest.

3D Technologies for dental process

As mentioned above, 3D technologies should be able to provide greater precision and reduce manufacturing times. But what are the new steps to follow when creating 3D printed dental devices? Oliver Bellaton explains, “The physical impression will be replaced by a 3D digital impression taken by the dentist with an intra-oral scanner (meaning a camera will reconstruct in 3D and in real time the surface of the teeth and gums). This 3D file can then be sent over to the dental laboratory through a secure web platform. The laboratory will review the digital impression and model the morphology of the crown in its design software (CAD), taking into account the limits of the gum, interference with other digitised teeth and even the shape of the patient’s smile with a face scanner. In case of doubt, a quick exchange by split screen with the dentist allows to validate the shape of the crown. The 3D file of the crown can then be sent to a 3D printer for manufacturing. In the near future, the dentist could have the 3D printer directly in the office for simple manufacturing. All digital flow configurations are possible. The process may take only a few hours, which in some cases means that the patient could only be brought in to the practice once.” The result is reduced logistics flows and production times, a personalised system that is much more adapted to the patient’s morphology.

Dentists and dental technicians will therefore have to equip themselves with 3D scanners or printers but also with CAD software, an obstacle for many professionals today. Nicolas Klaus, Dental Product & Business Development at Formlabs explains, “The essential pillars of these new working methods are 3D scanners, CAD software and 3D printing. Generally, there is a point of resistance in the software on which training is not obvious”.

Future of dental 3D printing?

While 3D technologies have significant advantages for the sector, their adoption may frighten some practitioners because it requires a new work logic, training in software, scanners and printers and a certain amount of confidence in these innovative processes. Today, for example, more than 50% of French laboratories have equipped themselves with 3D scanners and machine tools and 20% with 3D printers. These players recorded a 70% increase in turnover, proof that they represent real gains for dental professionals. Anton from EnvisionTEC added, “Most practitioners are very receptive and open to new digital technologies. It is simply a matter of asking clinicians and dental industry professionals to understand and trust the new digital technology and its benefits for themselves, their company and their patients. And of course, education and training play an important role. This is why many manufacturing companies are investing in this field to better understand the technology and its clinical applications“.

How Long Does It Take to Get a Dental Crown?

Dental crowns are a common solution for protecting and restoring damaged or decayed teeth. If your dentist has recommended a crown, you may be wondering how long the process takes and what to expect. Let’s take a closer look at the steps involved in getting a dental crown and how much time each part of the procedure can take.

What is a Dental Crown?

A dental crown is a cap placed over a damaged tooth to restore its shape, size, strength, and appearance. Crowns are commonly used to cover teeth that are cracked, severely decayed, or have had a root canal. Crowns can be made from various materials, including porcelain, ceramic, metal, or a combination of materials, depending on the needs of the patient.

Step 1: The Initial Consultation

The process of getting a dental crown begins with an initial consultation. During this visit, your dentist will examine your tooth and decide if a crown is the best solution. This step usually takes around 30 to 60 minutes. The dentist may take X-rays to check the extent of the damage or decay and will discuss which type of crown is best for your tooth.

Step 2: Preparing the Tooth

Once it’s determined that you need a crown, the next step is to prepare your tooth. In this stage, the dentist will clean the tooth and remove any decayed or damaged portions. They will also shape the tooth so that the crown can fit properly. This process typically takes about 60 to 90 minutes. If the tooth is severely damaged, your dentist may need to build up the tooth with a filling material before placing the crown.

Step 3: Taking Impressions

After your tooth is prepared, the dentist will take an impression (mold) of your tooth to send to a dental lab. This impression ensures that the crown fits perfectly over your tooth. The impression process usually takes around 15 to 20 minutes. Some dentists use digital impressions, which can speed up the process.

Step 4: Temporary Crown

While your permanent crown is being made in the lab (which typically takes a few days to a week), your dentist will place a temporary crown over your prepared tooth. This temporary crown is made of acrylic or metal and is designed to protect your tooth until the permanent crown is ready. The temporary crown is generally placed in about 20 minutes.

Step 5: Fitting the Permanent Crown

Once your permanent crown is ready, you'll return to the dentist for a follow-up appointment. During this visit, the dentist will remove the temporary crown and check the fit and color of the permanent crown. If everything looks good, the crown will be permanently cemented into place. This step usually takes about 30 to 60 minutes.

How Long Does the Entire Process Take?

On average, the entire process of getting a dental crown, from consultation to placement of the permanent crown, can take around two to three weeks. This includes time for the dental lab to create your crown after your initial visit. However, some advanced dental offices may offer same-day crowns using special technology like CEREC, which can create and place a custom crown in just a few hours.

Factors That Can Affect the Timeline

While two to three weeks is the typical timeframe, there are a few factors that can impact how long it takes to get a dental crown. These include:

Type of Crown: Some crowns, like those made from metal, may take less time to make, while others, like porcelain crowns, may take longer.

Lab Processing Time: The time it takes for the dental lab to create your crown can vary. If there are any delays, it could extend the process.

Complexity of the Tooth: In some cases, if the tooth needs additional treatments or the damage is extensive, it may take longer to prepare the tooth for a crown.

After Getting a Dental Crown

Once your permanent crown is placed, you may experience some sensitivity or discomfort for a few days, especially when chewing or drinking hot or cold beverages. This is normal and should subside as your mouth adjusts. It’s important to follow your dentist’s care instructions and attend any recommended follow-up appointments to ensure that your crown is functioning properly.

In most cases, the process of getting a dental crown takes about two to three weeks, though modern technology may allow for quicker solutions. While waiting for your permanent crown, a temporary crown ensures that your tooth remains protected. If you're concerned about the dental crown cost, keep in mind that this procedure is an investment in your long-term dental health, and your dentist can provide details on your specific treatment options.

Same Day Crowns: Fast, Convenient Dental Solutions in Westport

In the ever-evolving world of dental care, one innovation stands out for its ability to deliver swift and effective solutions: same day crowns. In Westport, where time is often of the essence, patients seeking restorative dental treatments can benefit immensely from this advanced technology. This article explores the various facets of same day crowns, including their benefits, the technology behind them, and how Distinctive Dental Service stands at the forefront of this remarkable dental solution.

Understanding Same Day Crowns

Same Day Crowns in westport are a revolutionary dental procedure that allows patients to receive a custom crown in a single visit. Traditionally, the process of getting a crown involved multiple appointments: an initial visit for measurements and impressions, followed by a second visit to place the crown after it was fabricated in a dental lab. This lengthy process could leave patients with temporary crowns, discomfort, and anxiety. However, with advancements in technology, same day crowns have transformed the experience.

The process begins with digital impressions taken using advanced imaging equipment. This eliminates the need for messy materials and provides a highly accurate representation of the patient's tooth structure. The digital data is then sent to a milling machine, which crafts the crown from a block of ceramic or porcelain material. This process typically takes just a couple of hours, allowing patients to leave the office with a fully functional crown the same day.

The Advantages of Same Day Crowns

The benefits of opting for same day crowns are numerous and compelling, particularly for patients who lead busy lives. First and foremost, the convenience factor cannot be overstated. Patients can receive their dental restoration in one visit, saving them from the hassle of scheduling multiple appointments and dealing with temporary crowns that can be uncomfortable and inconvenient.

Moreover, the precision and accuracy of same day crowns are noteworthy. With digital impressions and state-of-the-art milling technology, the fit and function of the crown are optimized for each individual patient. This results in a more comfortable and natural feel, enhancing the overall dental experience. Patients can enjoy greater peace of mind knowing that they are receiving a high-quality restoration designed specifically for them.

Additionally, same day crowns often prove to be a cost-effective solution. While the initial investment may appear higher than traditional crowns, the reduction in appointments and the avoidance of temporary restorations can lead to significant savings in both time and money. For many patients in Westport, this is an attractive proposition.

Technology Behind Same Day Crowns

The technology that powers same day crowns is truly remarkable. Distinctive Dental Service utilizes advanced CAD/CAM (computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing) technology to ensure that each crown is created with the utmost precision. The digital impressions, taken with a specialized scanner, are converted into a 3D model that allows for precise measurements and adjustments.

Once the design is complete, the data is sent to a milling machine, which carves the crown from a solid block of ceramic or porcelain. This process not only enhances the speed of crown fabrication but also improves the quality of the final product. The materials used for same day crowns are durable, aesthetically pleasing, and closely mimic the appearance of natural teeth.

Furthermore, the use of digital technology in the dental field enhances the overall patient experience. Patients can view their crowns being created in real-time, adding an element of transparency and engagement to the process. This innovative approach fosters a sense of trust and confidence in the dental care provided by Distinctive Dental Service.

This patient-centered approach allows for tailored solutions, ensuring that each crown not only fits perfectly but also aligns with the patient’s aesthetic goals.

Moreover, the practice prioritizes patient education, helping individuals understand the benefits of same day crowns and the technology behind them. By empowering patients with knowledge, Distinctive Dental Service fosters informed decision-making, enhancing the overall dental experience.

Patient Experiences: A Testament to Quality Care

The experiences of patients who have undergone the same day crown procedure at Distinctive Dental Service speak volumes about the quality of care provided.

In addition to the technical aspects, patients appreciate the friendly and supportive environment fostered by the dental team. The emphasis on comfort, combined with the expertise of the staff, creates a positive experience that encourages patients to prioritize their dental health.

Conclusion: Embracing the Future of Dental Care

The convenience, precision, and cost-effectiveness of this innovative solution make it an appealing choice for many patients. With practices like Distinctive Dental Service leading the way, individuals can enjoy the benefits of high-quality dental care without the traditional hassles associated with crown placement.

For every company, nurturing is the problem, not generating inquiries. With integrated analytical tools, healthcare CRM firms can provide you with the best lead nurturing solutions. You may tailor the messaging, customization, and other alerts and promotions to the needs and preferences of each patient with the use of such evidence-based inputs.

4. Better communication

Communication is the foundation of the healthcare sector, as a delay in responding might have disastrous repercussions. In the healthcare sector, CRM may address issues and provide smooth lines of communication with minimal or no room for human mistake. While smart workflows guarantee that patients are informed of critical changes, medical practitioners may also use built-in data to develop a business plan that is proven to succeed.

5. Reduced Medical billing time

CRM for the healthcare business not only improves patient care coordination, transitional care, and complete treatment plans, but it also saves time in corporate hospital medical billing. CRM for hospital management may retrieve billing information from several departments such as pharmacy, diagnostics, housekeeping, and cafeteria and automatically issue a bill, reducing human error.

Conclusion

CRM has become an essential tool for healthcare providers looking to attract and retain patients in today’s digital age. By enhancing patient data management, streamlining communication, and improving billing processes, healthcare CRM systems not only elevate the quality of patient care but also boost operational efficiency. This leads to a more personalized, seamless experience that builds trust and satisfaction—key factors in attracting and keeping patients. Embracing CRM allows healthcare providers to meet modern patient expectations while fostering growth and success in a competitive industry.
