We understand how disruptive dental treatment can feel—especially when it involves multiple appointments, temporary crowns, and unnecessary time away from work or family.
You are not alone in wanting a solution that feels efficient, controlled, and intentionally planned from the start.
At D’Amico Dental Care, we have guided hundreds of patients in Wayland and Watertown, Massachusetts through crown treatment with one priority in mind: predictability.
That clinical experience is what allows us to offer Same Day Crowns using advanced CEREC® technology—not as a shortcut, but as a carefully structured process.
This page is not here to persuade you.
It is here to help you clearly understand the process, the planning, and whether this approach makes sense for you—before any decision is made.

A same day crown is a custom-designed, full-coverage ceramic crown that is digitally planned, fabricated, and placed in a single visit—without temporary crowns, without multiple appointments, and without weeks of waiting.
Using CEREC® digital dentistry, your crown is:
Everything happens under one roof, with full clinical control at every step.

Most patients who choose same day crowns are not looking for something “new.”
They are looking for something reliable, efficient, and professionally managed.
The value is simple and practical:
For professionals, parents, and patients who value their time, this matters.
Traditional crowns require:
Our Same Day Crown process is built around a different philosophy:
Do it once. Do it carefully. Finish it completely.
Patients regularly tell us that the greatest benefit is not just convenience—but mental relief.
There is comfort in knowing the treatment is complete when you leave the office.
Our Same Day Crown process includes:
Most of our same day crown patients are not chasing cosmetic trends.
They are focused on:
CEREC crowns allow us to design restorations that are balanced, conservative, and natural-looking—never overdone.
Before-and-after cases are reviewed carefully, in context, and with realistic expectations.
Technology alone does not create good outcomes.
Clinical judgment does.
At D’Amico Dental Care, same day crowns are not delegated or automated decisions.
They are guided by years of restorative experience, supported by digital tools—not replaced by them.
This is how risk is reduced:
Patients consistently choose D’Amico Dental Care because they want:
We believe trust is built quietly—through consistency, transparency, and results that hold up over time.
Same day crowns are ideal for many—but not every—situation.
Our role is to guide, not to push.
During your consultation, we will explain:
If you move forward, it will be because the process makes sense to you.
If you are looking to complete your crown in one visit, the next step is simple.

D'Amico dental is wonderful. So professional, capable, and with such modern equipment and techniques. I got a new crown there today; they scanned my mouth and used a device that crafts the crown on site, while I waited. Perfect fit 🙂
I HIGHLY recommend Dr. D’Amico Dental Care. Dealing with various dental problems like cavities, crowns, root canals, and extractions has always made me fearful of dentists. However, my experience completely changed when I began seeing Dr. Chris D’Amico a few years ago. From the outset, Dr. Chris and his team were incredibly friendly, professional, and had a comforting bedside manner. Their office is state of the art and always very clean. Dr Chris devised a comprehensive plan to restore both my teeth and my confidence in my smile. Though it was a length process to restore my teeth, I felt like it was in the best hands and the staff always made sure I was comfortable. After correcting my major dental issues, Dr. Chris personally put in the veneers I desperately needed. Words cannot adequately express my gratitude for this dental practice. Thanks to their care, I now have a healthy and beautiful smile. I have so much trust in Dr. Chris that my entire family now visits his practice. I am especially thankful for Dr. Chris’s quick response when my son experienced a dental emergency due to a hockey injury. It's hard to believe, but I actually look forward to my dental appointments now. Thank you Dr D'Amico & staff! Attached is my before/after photo.
I've was looking for a quality dental practice for the better part of ten years. I've been in and out of different dental offices never finding the right fit. Tbh, I was getting to the point where I was thinking what I expected wasn't reasonable and that I may have to lower my expectations. Then I found D'Amico Dental Care and I realized my expectations weren't unreasonable. So thank you to the D'Amico team for making feel like I'm a normal person with normal expectations lol I'm impressed how this practice retains their staff. I've been going here for the last two years and I see the same faces. This may seem like a small deal to some people, but to me it speaks volumes about the culture of the business. I have had a fair amount of work done and I'm pleased with the results. Great communication, without any judgement has been a huge help in identifying a treatment plan that makes sense. This focused approach has given me a feeling of confidence that I wasn't getting at other dental offices and this has created a sense of trust with Dr Chris and his staff. Office is clean and well equipped with state of the art equipment. To prep a tooth and have a permanent crown placed on the same day is very impressive to me. At no point have I thought to myself that I can't get what I need within this office. I'm very happy to have found this office and cant say enough about why I enjoy going here. I highly recommend D'Amico if you're looking for a dentist. They're literally the best
I had a same-day crown done and they did a beautiful job. The staff is always so nice and friendly, especially Emily who cleaned my teeth today. Many thanks!
Dr. D'Amico always makes sure his patients are happy prior leaving the office. I had an implant done, and Dr. D'Amico made sure it has a perfect cut and shade before cementing it permanently. He has high quality equipment, materials, and professional staff that make the office an excellent practice. I highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for a great dentist, friendly staff and top-quality equipment that makes the appointment goes way less painful, much faster, and very precise.
I heard about D'Amico Dental Care on 98.5 The Sports Hub and decided to give them a try! They are located right on Main Street in Watertown, with a huge building and plenty of parking. The office is very impressive, filled with the latest technology and friendly staff. My first appointment with Dr. D'Amico was a comprehensive evaluation, and I could immediately appreciate his expertise, honesty, and recommendations. From there, I setup a cleaning a few days later, and it was one of the most thorough cleanings I've ever had. I highly recommend if you are looking for a new dentist, have new or different insurance, or need a crown/implant. You can tell Dr. D'Amico has put a lot of time and effort into making his practice stand out in every aspect of patient experience, so go check it out - you'll be very impressed!

BEST dental office I've ever visited, and that's from someone that works in a hospital, but was terrified of dentist visits all my life.. 🙂 I have many complex issues (most stemming from the Eastern European dentistry of limited resources in my youth, and some from me just not seeing dentists regularly later on....). When I moved in the area I looked for an experienced dentist, preferably with academic connections. Dr D'Amico is faculty at Tufts Dental School. He competently took care of all my problems, explained me the options for each issue, and helped me chose the best solution. He also has an in-office machine can make these great looking ceramic crowns in few hours, and a computerized local anesthesia machine that makes all procedures practically pain free. So far, I had a small bone graft in the lower jaw followed by an implant, some fillings, a ceramic crown - and results are just amazing. I had regular hygienist visits every 3 months with Dawn, she is excellent ! I was referred for other procedures to an excellent oral surgeon in the area. Dr D'Amico's office staff - special mention to Anna and Eva - is very competent, friendly and warm. Most of all, I can't believe I am not stressed out when I go to my dental visits... Very highly recommended for anyone that can identify with my story !
First time patient at Dr D'Amico Dental Care in Watertown. Very pleased with the service from the Technicians & the front desk employee! Found Dr Daniel very pleasant to talk too & explained everything thoroughly. Very happy with results!
The first time I went to D'Amico was to get acquainted, get current with xrays and tell my woeful story of letting go of my dental care for years. I was met with compassion, concern and reassurance. I was smitten by the staff, Dr. Chris, and very taken by the immaculate, modern facility. Many clinicians across different fields hesitate to invest in equipment that both improves their performance and the patient's experience. I worked in the medical field in communications, and I've seen lots of variations on both poor and quality care. This place is topnotch. Period. Today, they literally brought me to tears. My first cleaning in years. Angela was thorough, kind, super aware, and truly the best dental hygienist I've ever seen. She is a perfect match for this practice that is friendly to the fearful and truly on top of dental practice advances. It has been years and I will return. This gifted group is poised to help me turn my dental health around. I am grateful.
Great experience with Dr Chris! Had two crowns done in one day and it was painless and easy. Friendly and knowledgeable staff that helped me every step of the way.
I initially saw Dr. D'Amico at the beginning of July for a consultation. A different dentist had told me that I would need to have crown lengthening surgery or extract my back left molar because there wasn't enough tooth to adhere a crown to. I got a second opinion from Dr. D'Amico and I am SO happy that I did. He was able to use the CEREC machine to perfectly fit my new crown to my tooth. I had previously done a root canal on the tooth with a periodontist so the appointment for the crown was only 2 hours. The entire staff was caring and made sure that I was comfortable. The procedure was virtually painless. Dr. D'Amico carefully sculpted the crown to fit perfectly into my clear aligner- it was clear he was committed to creating the best fit, not just getting me out of the chair quickly. A week later and I don't even notice the crown. I feel so confident in Dr. D'Amico and his staff that I scheduled a cleaning with them and plan to use them for all of my dental needs in the future. Couldn't recommend them enough!

When I moved back to Watertown 12 years ago, I needed to find myself a new Dental office. I wanted to find a place that was always going to better themself and not just stand still like many private offices do. This office impressed me from day one. The staff and Dentist have been an absolute pleasure in all my years. one visit I recall is I needed a crown , this office had the capability to make my crown on site , which then allowed them to complete the whole procedure in just one visit.
Great group and great dentist! Crowns are made right in the office on the spot. I highly recommend this dental group.
