A method and apparatus that permits a dentist to provide a patient with a monolithic zirconia restoration (i.e., crown) in one office visit. The dentist is provided with a kit of various near net shape (NNS) components of various shapes and shades, chair-side software, and a chair-side milling machine to convert a selected kit component into a finished, fully contoured restoration in about one hour or less. Each such kit component may be, for example, a fully sintered zirconia NNS component having an integral mandrel at a precise location and orientation to minimize the amount of milling time.
