CEREC? CAD/CAM – Got 2 hours? Get a crown
CEREC? CAD/CAM is the epitome of Modern Dentistry. It means that in just 2 hours you can have a crown! There are no temporaries and no need for a second visit. It’s a precise fit. CEREC? CAD/CAM is less invasive and delivers durable, natural looking crowns in a snap. You can say goodbye to gooey impressions, touchy temporaries, and ill-fitting permanent crowns because CEREC? CAD/CAM uses digital imaging so you get a precise fit without all the mess.
No temporary, no second visit, a precise fit
CEREC? CAD/CAM crowns look better and are easier to get than their traditional counterparts. In addition, CEREC? CAD/CAM inlays and onlays are metal free, so all you see in the mirror is natural tooth color. They’re an excellent alternative to conventional fillings.
About Crowns
A dental crown restores a tooth’s shape, size, and strength. It fully encases the visible portion of your tooth or dental implant. Once it is permanently bonded in place, only a Dentist or Specialist can remove it.
With proper care and good oral hygiene, the life of a crown can range from 5 to 15 years.
If a natural tooth-colored porcelain crown is chosen, our CEREC? CAD/CAM treatment gives patients a completed permanent crown in just one office visit. Other types of crowns require two office visits.
When Prescribed
A crown may be prescribed by your Dentist to:
- Restore and protect a tooth that is worn, decayed, cracked, or broken
- Protect and support a tooth after a very large filling or root canal treatment
- Cover a dental implant
- Hold a dental bridge or other prosthetic device in place
- Improve your smile by covering a misshapen or severely discolored tooth
