What is CEREC:

The dental practice world has been revolutionized by the introduction of CEREC by Sirona Dental Systems, a world-leading technology application that takes care of all ceramic dental restoration procedures in one typical dentist office visit. CEREC allows patients the pleasure of getting and in and out of the dentist’s office in a single visit for procedures involving all-ceramic crowns, onlays or veneers. And who wouldn’t want fewer injections, less drilling and less time in the normally dreaded dentist’s chair?

Advantages of CEREC crowns?

Convenience – If you’ve ever had a dental crown fitted in the traditional way, you know that there is a time commitment on your part.  Two dental appointments are required, involving freezing of the gums and tooth area, and wearing a temporary crown for 2 weeks or longer.  The main advantage of CEREC is convenience – one visit and no temporaries and fast recovery time with less tooth sensitivity!

Quality – The CEREC milling machine constructs perfectly-fitting crowns, bridges, veneers, inlays and on-lays.  Since CEREC crowns and bridges are made from a solid block of ceramic, the product is beautiful and strong.

Digital Impressions= no unpleasant impression materials! With Cerec, we can scan your mouth digitally, eliminating the need for messy impression materials. The scan provides us with a three -dimensional image to work with as we design your restoration.

Cerec also eliminates the reliance on a temporary crown that may be prone to falling out and retains remarkably lifelike porcelain materials which can be tailored to match the natural shade of patients’ teeth
