How CEREC One-Visit Dentistry Works
The traditional method for creating a dental restoration requires two appointments to the dentist over two weeks or so. In the first appointment, your dentist prepares the tooth and places a temporary crown for you to wear while the permanent is created in a separate dental lab. Unfortunately, this temporary restoration is prone to breaking, which requires yet another trip to the dentist. Traditional crowns are inconvenient at best—and a stressful, uncomfortable hassle at worst.
CEREC (chairside economical restoration of esthetic ceramics) allows Dr. Makram and our team to handle every step of the process for your dental restoration from the comfort of our dental office. Using a customized treatment plan created with digital impressions and CAD/CAM technology, your new crown, bridge, inlay, onlay, or abutment is milled from a single piece of porcelain in less than half an hour. Dr. Makram then checks to make sure it looks, fits, and feels just like it should before the restoration is permanently affixed into place.
Dr. Makram offers dental crowns, inlays, onlays, and abutments in just one visit with CEREC technology.
- Dental crowns: Also known as caps, they are tooth-shaped coverings that fit securely around a damaged or decayed tooth.
- Dental bridges: A set of dental crowns that fill the gap left by missing teeth using the two surrounding natural teeth as anchors.
- Inlays/onlays: Porcelain, or indirect, fillings that restore a tooth following tooth decay. Unlike silver fillings, they blend with the surrounding tooth enamel, and are created outside of the tooth and placed after.
- Abutment: In implant dentistry, the small piece that connects the prosthetic tooth to the dental implant.
Is CEREC right for you? Patients who need a porcelain restoration to regain the health and beauty of their smiles are usually excellent candidates for the procedure. Dr. Makram will discuss the process with you to help you understand why it is a good option for your dental crown (or any other restoration).
