Same Day Crowns
CEREC is a technology that has revolutionized the way tooth restoration is carried out in dental clinics. Imagine that you are in need of a crown or a filling, or you need your old fillings replaced. You walk in, undergo a simple and painless procedure, then walk out a short time later with a completely restored tooth — all in one visit.
Your new filling and/or crown will be entirely composed of ceramic material and will match the color of your natural teeth. You will not have to go through the lengthy, multi-visit restoration process, and the ceramic material will not cause decay or damage to your teeth. The process is quick, reliable and painless.
Benefits of CEREC Same Day Crowns
CEREC Same Day Crowns by Mundo Dentistry have the following core benefits:
- Durable crowns and fillings composed entirely of ceramic material
- No weakening of the tooth tissue, no damage and no decay (as caused by metal fillings)
- The whole process takes about an hour
- The use of the latest technology ensures custom tooth restoration that’s every bit as perfect as the old, time-consuming method.
How CEREC Works
CEREC treatment involves the CEREC Acquisition Unit and the CEREC Milling Unit. To begin, the dentist inspects your tooth for damage and determines a suitable procedure. Then, your tooth is prepared for restoration, which involves removing the decayed tissue/old filling/old crown after administering anesthesia.
In the next step, the dentist takes an optical impression of your tooth by applying a tasteless and harmless powder and using a digital camera to take a photo. The image is processed in the CEREC Acquisition Unit, and is turned into a 3D model. The dentist then designs a dental restoration using that 3D model.
Once the restoration design is completed, about 20 minutes, the blueprint is sent to the CEREC milling unit. A ceramic block, in a color similar to your teeth, is then used to create the dental restoration. This process also takes about 20 minutes. Once the appliance has been created, your dentist will check it for fit and size by applying it to your tooth temporarily.
After checking that it’s okay, the crown will be polished and then bonded to your tooth permanently. Now you can see why CEREC crowns are also known as Same Day Crowns. One visit, in and out, and your smile is restored to its proper brilliance.
