CEREC - Single Visit Porcelain Restorations
CEREC is used for crowns, inlays and onlays. Cerec restorations are used to restore decayed,
broken or cracked teeth. Cerec metal-free crowns... The new metal-free crowns eliminate the ugly black line you may have seen next to the gum line on older crowns.
Onlays are more conservative of tooth structure than full crowns, and are used whenever possible. Inlays and Onlays are tooth-colored restorations that are used in place of silver fillings on the chewing surfaces of back teeth. This approach has become very popular.
CEREC technology is revolutionary to dentistry because it creates a beautiful, esthetic, strong and durable ceramic restoration that is precisely bonded to the tooth. It is accomplished using a digital scan of the prepared tooth and creating the restoration's design using powerful 3D software that allows the dentist to customize the result. The design is wirelessly transmitted to a special milling device that will create your restoration using a dental ceramic. Because this is
usually done in one visit you do not need to have a bulky, messy impression made of your tooth, you do not need to wear a temporary crown and you do not need to come back on a separate visit, often weeks away, to have your new crown placed.
