Benefits of CEREC Dental Crowns
Traditional dental crowns work well to restore teeth, and are used in general and cosmetic dentistry. They are, however, time consuming and usually require multiple dental visits before they are complete. CEREC dental crowns offer several unique benefits over their traditional counterparts, including:
- Speed
Traditionally, dental crowns could take as many as two to three weeks to complete. During the traditional process, the decay had to be removed from the tooth, the tooth shaped to hold a crown, impressions made and sent off to a laboratory, and the final constructed crown placed at a follow-up appointment. CEREC dental crowns bypass the waiting period. These crowns can be made by your local dentist in-office in about 45 minutes, eliminating the need for a follow-up appointment.
- Precision
Because CEREC technology provides a complete, microscopic 3D picture of the tooth and mouth structure, a dentist can create dental crowns with superior precision. Since the patient is present during the construction process, subtle modifications can be made immediately to perfectly fit each individual situation. This allows for the ultimate in fit, appearance, and function.
