CEREC Same-Day Crowns
What are CEREC Same-Day Crowns?
CEREC same-day crowns are custom-made ceramic restorations that can be created and placed in just one visit. The process starts with digital impressions of your teeth, eliminating the need for messy traditional molds. We send these 3D images to a computer where our skilled dentists use CAD/CAM technology to design your crown.
Once the design is complete, we send it to an in-office milling machine, which crafts your restoration from a solid block of high-quality ceramic material. This ensures precise, natural-looking results and a strong, durable restoration.
The Benefits of CEREC Same-Day Crowns
Time-Saving
Time-saving is one of the most significant benefits of CEREC same-day crowns. Traditional crowns require at least two appointments, with a temporary crown in between. This can be inconvenient and time-consuming for patients. With CEREC, you can have your tooth fully restored in just one visit, saving you valuable time and reducing the need for multiple trips to the dentist.
Comfortable and Convenient
CEREC technology eliminates the need for messy impressions, making the process more comfortable for patients. Additionally, since we can do the entire procedure in one visit, you won’t have to deal with temporary crowns or the discomfort that comes with them.
Natural-Looking Results
CEREC same-day crowns are made from a high-quality ceramic material that closely mimics teeth’ natural appearance. This means your restoration will blend seamlessly with your other teeth, giving you a beautiful, natural-looking smile.
Strong and Durable
The CAD/CAM technology used in CEREC ensures precise and accurate results, leading to strong and durable restorations. With proper care, these crowns can withstand daily wear and tear and last for many years.
How Does the Process Work?
The process of getting a CEREC same-day crown is simple and efficient. Here’s what you can expect:
- Digital Impressions: Instead of using uncomfortable molds, we will use a digital scanner to capture 3D images of your teeth.
- Design: Using CAD/CAM technology, our dentists can design your crown before you, making any necessary adjustments to ensure a precise fit.
- Milling: Once the design is complete, we use an in-office milling machine that crafts your restoration from a solid block of ceramic material.
- Bonding: After milling the crown, we will check its fit and make any final adjustments before permanently bonding it to your tooth.
- Final Touches: We will polish and shape the crown to match the color and shape of your other teeth, giving you a seamless and natural-looking result.
Are CEREC Same-Day Crowns Right for You?
CEREC same-day crowns are suitable for a variety of dental issues, including:
- Cracked or chipped teeth
- Severely decayed teeth
- Large fillings that need replacement
- Discolored or misshapen teeth
However, our dentists will assess your situation and determine if CEREC same-day crowns are the best option for you. In some cases, we may still recommend traditional crowns.
