Do you want to restore your smile but dislike multiple dental appointments? We get it! That’s why we’re pleased to offer patients CEREC (Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics) same-day crowns, a welcome alternative to traditional dental crown procedures that could take several weeks.
What Are CEREC Crowns?
The state-of-the-art CEREC technology allows dentists to prepare, create, and fit dental crowns all in a single visit. Using computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM), we can capture a digital image of the patient’s tooth and craft a perfectly tailored cap on-site in just a few hours!
What Are Some Benefits?
Efficient and Convenient
Given people’s hectic schedules, the less time we spend in the dental chair, the better. With CEREC crowns, the long wait associated with crown fabrication is eliminated. This means no more dealing with the temporisation stage between crown preparation and crown insertion, such as breaking the temporary restoration. Plus no risk with issues that could arise from transferring data from the dentist to the lab and back. These same-day caps allow you to walk in with a damaged tooth and walk out with a fully restored smile in just one session.
Precise and Customised
CEREC technology is also remarkably precise! The digital imaging captures an exact replica of your mouth, which the dentist uses to design a crown that fits snuggly and looks natural. The margin of error is significantly diminished compared to the old-school method of impression-making. Plus, with everything being digital, adjustments can be made on the spot without the need for additional appointments.
Durable and Aesthetically Pleasing
CEREC crowns are milled from a single block of high-quality ceramic, ensuring your new crown is strong and durable. Unlike traditional caps, where the porcelain is fused to metal and can sometimes leave a gray line at the gum, CEREC crowns’ all-ceramic makeup offers a more aesthetic finish, with colour matching that blends your restoration seamlessly with your natural teeth.
