Experience the convenience of getting a custom dental crown in just one visit with our CEREC same-day crown technology.
The CEREC Advantage
Traditional crowns require multiple visits and weeks of waiting. CEREC changes everything:
| Traditional Crowns | CEREC Same-Day |
|---|---|
| 2-3 appointments | Single visit |
| 2-3 weeks waiting | Same day |
| Messy impressions | Digital scan |
| Temporary crown | No temporary needed |
How It Works
1. Digital Scanning
We use a small camera to take precise 3D images of your tooth - no messy impression materials needed.
2. Computer Design
Using advanced software, we design your custom crown right before your eyes, ensuring perfect fit and aesthetics.
3. In-Office Milling
Our CEREC milling unit carves your crown from a solid block of tooth-colored ceramic in about 15 minutes.
4. Placement
We bond your new crown in place, make any final adjustments, and you leave with your permanent restoration.
