What Are CEREC Dental Crowns?

CEREC dental crowns are high-quality ceramic restorations used to repair and protect damaged or weakened teeth. They are crafted using advanced digital technology that allows for precise, custom-fit results. Our dentist offers both crowns and bridges using the CEREC system, which comes with a range of benefits that make it a popular choice for those needing restorative dental care. Key benefits of CEREC crowns and bridges include:

Saving Time with a Single Appointment: CEREC technology allows you to receive a custom crown or bridge in a single visit, eliminating the need for follow-up appointments or temporaries.
Precise, Comfortable Fit With a Natural Appearance: Each restoration is digitally designed to match your tooth shape and color, offering a seamless look and lasting comfort.
Cleaner, More Accurate Impressions: Our digital scanning replaces traditional messy molds for a faster, more comfortable, and highly accurate experience.

Why Might I Need a Same-Day Crown?

Our dentist recognizes crowns as a versatile solution that can address a wide range of dental issues. With their ability to blend naturally with your smile, crowns offer both durability and aesthetic benefits, making them an ideal choice for many patients. Reasons you may need a CEREC dental crown include:

You have a tooth that has been cracked, chipped, or broken and needs protection.
To restore a tooth weakened by a large cavity or an old filling.
When a tooth requires extra strength and protection following root canal therapy.
To cover a discolored or misshapen tooth to enhance its appearance.
To support a dental implant or dental bridge for proper function.

Our CEREC Crown Process

We begin our CEREC crown process with a consultation, during which our dentist evaluates your dental needs and explains the procedure in detail. During your appointment, the affected tooth is prepared by removing any decay or old restorations and shaping it to fit the new crown. We will then use a digital scanner to capture 3D images of your tooth and surrounding teeth. This creates a precise digital model which allows us to design your crown in our office using advanced software.

Once the design is finalized, the digital information is sent to our on-site milling machine that carves your crown from a solid block of ceramic. After milling, the crown is carefully polished before being permanently placed on your tooth. Because the entire process happens in one visit, you'll leave our office with a beautifully restored smile the same day!

CEREC Crown FAQs

We understand you may have questions regarding our same-day crowns. Our team is by your side throughout your care, ready to enhance your peace of mind and comfort in any way we can. We aim not only to give you a restored smile but also to provide a positive experience. Common questions about our CEREC crowns include:

How long do CEREC crowns last?

By maintaining good oral hygiene and attending regular checkups in our office, your CEREC crown can last 10-15 years. Their durability depends on how well you care for your teeth.

Do I need special cleaning tools for my CEREC crown?

No special tools are needed; just use a soft-bristled toothbrush and regular dental floss. Maintaining good oral hygiene is the most important way to protect your crown and surrounding teeth.

Are there any foods I should avoid after getting a CEREC dental crown?

We recommend you avoid very hard, sticky, or chewy foods for a few days to protect the new crown from damage. Over time, your crown becomes strong enough for normal eating, but caution helps prevent unnecessary stress while it settles.
