Read on to learn more about this revolutionary\nrestorative treatment and its many benefits. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is CEREC?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>CEREC (Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic\nCeramics) is a technology used to create dental crowns. This is accomplished in\njust one visit to the dentist&#8217;s office. The CAD\/CAM technology uses digital\nimpressions to help craft a treatment plan and create customized dental\nprosthetics, including crowns, bridges, inlays, onlays, and even an abutment,\nif necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is the Process of Receiving a CEREC Crown?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When you arrive for your appointment, your dentist will\nprepare your tooth by filing it down to ensure the custom crown fits properly\nwhen placed. Using an advanced digital scanner, they will take pictures of your\ntooth and gums to create a full 3D image. Transferring the image to the CAD\/CAM\nsoftware, the crown will then be designed before moving to the milling unit,\nwhich will create the restoration from a single piece of material. Then, they\nwill place your new restoration over your natural tooth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In less than an hour, your dentist will have you seeing a\nfully restored smile. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Are the Benefits of Same-Day Crowns?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>With traditional crowns, you not only have to wear a\ntemporary crown, but you also have to wait several weeks before your final\nrestoration is complete. When comparing regular dental crowns with same-day\ncrowns, it\u2019s hard to look past the benefits of CEREC:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Faster results<\/strong>: With CEREC, you can have\na custom restoration in an hour as opposed to several weeks with a traditional\ncrown. <\/li><li><strong>Comfort<\/strong>: There are no messy, cold dental\nputty impressions to be taken. Instead, your dentist will use a digital scanner\nto capture the images needed to create your crown. <\/li><li><strong>High-Quality<\/strong>: You can expect a custom\nprosthetic to fit and look better because of the scanner\u2019s ability to capture high-quality\nimages. <\/li><li><strong>Durable<\/strong>: Dental crowns created with CEREC\ntechnology are made from dental ceramic, so not only is it durable, but it is\nstrong and recreates the appearance of a natural tooth. <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re on a time crunch but desperately need a solution\nthat will protect your damaged tooth, take some time to talk to your dentist\nabout the possibility of CEREC same-day crowns. Before you know it, you\u2019ll be\nin and out of the dentist&#8217;s chair sporting a strong, durable dental crown that\nblends in beautifully with the rest of your smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About the Practice <\/strong><br>At Bristol Family Dental, our team of dental professionals understand the difficulties that come with decayed or damaged teeth.
