What are CEREC Same-Day Dental Crowns?
Dental crowns are protective covers that are designed to guard and strengthen an underlying tooth that is moderately to severely decayed or damaged. They are typically made out of ceramic material that is meant to mimic natural tooth enamel as well as durable enough to withstand excessive pressures from chewing. Not only can it treat damaged or sensitive teeth, but it can also help improve the aesthetics of a patient’s tooth.
While traditional dental crowns usually take a couple of visits to complete the process, CEREC restorations can be finished within a single appointment. This means patients won’t have to wear a temporary crown or wait too long to improve the function of their pearly whites.
The Process of Getting a CEREC Same-Day Dental Crown
To begin the procedure, our team will numb your mouth with a local anesthetic so that you’re pain-free while we prepare your tooth. We’ll then take digital impressions of your smile so that we can get the most precise measurements. These 3D images will be used to construct your dental crown to match your unique specifications exactly. The milling unit will sculpt your dental crown in only around 20 minutes. Afterward, we’ll place your new crown and permanently bond it to your underlying tooth. You’ll be able to show off your brand-new tooth on the same day!
