CEREC: A New Reason to Smile is One Visit Away!
What is CEREC?
CEREC means we can quickly and economically restore damaged teeth using a durable ceramic material that matches the natural color of other teeth in your mouth.
CEREC can be used to restore:
- Partial and Full Crowns
- Veneers
- All other Single-Tooth Restorations
|
What Advantages Can CEREC Offer Me?
First and foremost, the restoration can be performed in a single session, usually in about an hour. With CEREC there's no need for us to make an impression and send it to a lab. We won't inconvenience you by asking you to return for a second visit.
Secondly, the restoration is natural looking, because it is made of tooth-colored ceramic material. It's metal-free -- no silver fillings to discolor your smile! The ceramic material is compatible with tissue in your mouth and is high-grade, anti-abrasive and plaque-resistant. It allows us to be extremely precise and save more of the health part of your mouth.
How Does CEREC Work?
First, we prepare the damaged tooth by applying a thin layer of reflective powder directly on the tooth's surface. Using a special camera, we then take a picture of the tooth. We work from this photo, which is actually a pin-sharp impression of the mouth.
Computer Aided Design technology helps us design the restoration from the optical impression. You can actually watch us design your new restoration right before your eyes!
