Crowns, veneers, onlays or inlays in just 1
visit,
instead of the usual 2 visits over 2 weeks!
How does this technology work?
The dentist will prepare your
tooth in the normal way, except instead of taking
impressions to take an impression of your tooth, the
dentist will take a digital image using a special
camera. This image is converted into 3D computerised
model of your tooth. The dentist will then use
this image as a guide to design your new restoration. Once
designed the data is sent to an onsite milling
machine which fabricates the restoaration from
a ceramic block. The milling process is quick ,
taking up to only 30 minutes. TThe dentist is able to
choose a ceramic block in a shade and colour to match
your surrounding teeth. Once the ceramic block
has been milled into the restoration it can be stained to
match the surrounding teeth in colour before it
is finished with a polish or glaze. The new restoaration
is then ready to be cemented into the prepared tooth.
- 1 visit - only 1 visit to the dentist
is required instead of the usual 2 or 3 visits.
- 1 set of local anaesthetic injections
- As you only require 1 dental visit,
you will only need 1 set of injections.
- Your dentist designs the restoration-
the restoration is designed and fabricated by
your dentist, whereas a crown made in a laboratory
is under the control of the technician.
- No temporary restorations - When
restorations are made in a laboratory, you require
temporary crowns and veneers while you wait for
your new teeth to be made. These temporaries often
fall off and cause problems . CEREC avoids this inconvenience.
