NO TEMPORARY, NO MESSY IMPRESSIONS, ONE EASY APPOINTMENT!

CEREC   is an advanced dental technology that is utilized for the restoration of decayed,

cracked, or chipped teeth.  Cerec can create full crowns, inlays and onlays.  The cerec

machine crafts a restoration in a matter of minutes.  Cerec restorations are made of

compressed porcelain.  It is for this reason that they are stronger than laboratory restorations,

which are layered porcelain.  The most beneficial feature of receiving a cerec restoration

is that it is accomplished in one visit.  In addition to the benefit of a one visit restoration,  

there is no uncomfortable impression material to bite on or temporary to wear.

PROCEDURE The procedure for placement of a cerec restoration is very simple. The

first step is to remove the decay from the tooth. The doctor will then shape the tooth in

preparation to take a digital picture.  the tooth is then sprayed with a very fine powder.  This

allows the digital camera to take an acceptable image.  Once this image is captured, the tooth

will appear on a computer screen in 3D.  This will allow the doctor to design the restoration right

in front of you.  Once the design is completed, the cerec will mill the restoration. This step

takes approximately 15 minutes.  You can actually watch this process if you would like.  When

the restoration is finished milling, the doctor will place the restoration. The entire process takes under

two hours to complete.
