  • Why you should choose CEREC for your next Dental Crown

CEREC treatment is an innovative form of dental technology that allows our dentists to diagnose and treat dental issues in one appointment. CEREC is the perfect treatment for patients in need of a new dental crown to improve their smile.

What are Dental Crowns?

A dental crown is a cap that is fitted on and around the damaged tooth to provide a protective layer against damage and decay.

Dental crowns can be fitted to a tooth to repair damage or decay, in order to improve your smile and tooth function.

Traditional dental crowns can be made from either metal, porcelain-fused metal, resin or ceramic, each differing in price and requiring a temporary crown before fitting. However, CEREC crowns are made using milled ceramic that is durable and can be colour matched to your natural teeth. CEREC crowns can also be fitted same-day, so there’s no need for a temporary crown.

What is CEREC?

CEREC is a dental technology that allows dentists to design and create custom dental restorations for patients. Same-day treatment is provided as the CEREC machine scans and creates your dental crown in practice, carving your crown from a block of ceramic.

Once the CEREC machine has milled your dental crown your dentist can polish, fit and bond it to your teeth for quick, painless dental crown treatment.

The benefits of Cerec Treatment for Dental Crowns

CEREC treatment is a quick process, allowing you to leave your appointment with a new crown on the same day. As CEREC treatment only takes up to two hours to complete, your tooth function can be restored almost immediately and your crown is fitted directly to your tooth using high-tech machinery to create the ideal fit.

CEREC Crowns are created using a ceramic block that can be polished and colour matched to your natural teeth, creating a seamless appearance that gives confidence back to your smile. The use of ceramic also provides a strong restoration that resists any abrasions or damage, making it a long-lasting solution to dental issues.
