What Is a Dental Crown?
When you have a damaged, weak, or broken tooth, a dental crown is a restorative dentistry treatment that restores both the appearance and function of your tooth. Dental crowns are made of many different materials like porcelain, resin, or metal, and they last up to 15 years.
The crown acts as a cap that sits tightly over your entire tooth. The dental crown process involves removing some enamel to ensure the crown fits correctly, then cementing the crown into its proper place.
Once the crown is in its correct position, it looks and functions just like your natural teeth.
What Are CEREC Same-Day Crowns?
CEREC same-day crowns offer a quick and efficient alternative to traditional crowns by providing a complete crown fitting in a single visit.
To get a traditional dental crown, you would first go to a dentist’s office for a consultation. During this appointment, your dentist would take impressions of your tooth and send these to a lab. Then, you’d wait for up to two weeks before coming in for another visit to get the crown.
With the CEREC system, however, you can receive a dental crown during your first appointment. When you see Dr. Badea for a same-day crown, she uses a computer-aided design and manufacturing tool to get digital pictures of your teeth. Then, the crown itself is created in the office using a specialized printer system.
The crown is matched to your other teeth, so it looks and feels natural.
Advantages of Same-Day Crowns
The biggest advantage of a CEREC same-day crown is that you get results with fewer dental visits. You’ll have a durable, aesthetically pleasing tooth restoration with just one visit to our office.
With these crowns there are also other advantages like:
No need for temporary crowns
With a CEREC same-day crown, there’s no need to wear an uncomfortable temporary crown, sparing you the inconvenience and ensuring a seamless transition to your permanent restoration.
A more attractive smile
A CEREC crown not only restores functionality but also enhances the aesthetics of your teeth. After your visit, you’ll have a crown that seamlessly blends with your natural teeth, leaving you with a confident and indistinguishable smile. No one will be able to tell the difference, giving you the assurance of a flawlessly integrated dental solution.
