Can I Really Get a Crown in One Visit?

Monday, January 28th, 2008

Yes!  Isn’t that fantastic?

Traditionally when you need a crown, your dentist has to take impressions and send them to the lab.  In the meantime, your dentist places temporary crowns to get you buy for a week or two until the lab has completed your crown.  You come back a second time and your crown is finally placed.

With Cerec Crowns, temporary crowns and second visits are of the past.  A cerec crown is done using 3-D imaging cameras a computer software.  Our cerec certified dentists are able to take pictures of your tooth and create your crown using cerec software on a computer.  That’s right, your crown is created on a computer!

Next, our dentist will electronically send the finished crown image to the cerec milling machine, located in the dental office.  No more sending the crown impression to the dental lab!  A ceramic block that matches your tooth shade is placed in the cerec milling machine.  About 10 – 20 minutes later, your all-ceramic, tooth-colored restoration is finished and ready to bond in place.  There is no need for temporary crowns or return visits.  It’s all done in a single appointment.

Are you ready to give Cerec Crowns a try?  Give us a call at 916-721-3368 and we’ll be happy to schedule your appointment with one of our Certified Cerec Dentists.  You’ll be in good hands.
