A CEREC crown is a piece of porcelain that is milled to perfectly
complete your tooth, restoring it to its original shape and size.
A CEREC crown protects and strengthens tooth structure that cannot
be restored with fillings or other types of restorations.
CEREC uses state of the art technology that enables us to prepare
beautiful restorations in a single visit. They are highly durable
and will last many years, but like most dental restorations, they
will eventually need to be replaced. CEREC crowns are made to match
the shape, size, and color or your teeth giving you a natural, long-lasting
beautiful smile.
Reasons for CEREC

Broken or Fractured Teeth
Cosmetic Enhancement

Fractured Fillings

What does getting a CEREC crown involve?
A CEREC crown can usually be completed in one appointment. Your appointment
will include taking several highly accurate pictures that will be
used by our CAD CAM technology to create your custom crown. While
the tooth is numb, the dentist will prepare the tooth by removing
any decay and shaping the surface to properly fit the CEREC.
Your new CEREC crown, inlay, or onlay will be designed & milled
while you wait. The final result is a beautiful, natural-colored tooth
restoration that is much stronger than before. The ceramic material
is chemically bonded to your tooth, so we can preserve as much healthy
tooth structure as possible. CEREC provides dental restorations that
actually strengthen your teeth
You will be given care instructions and encouraged to have regular
dental visits to check your new CEREC.
