You have made an appointment with your dentist only to learn that you will need a dental crown. Just the thought is exasperating. The need to take physical “putty” impressions, schedule multiple appointments, and wear a slightly uncomfortable temporary crown in the meantime. Getting a crown takes time, and not everybody can easily fit multiple appointments into their busy schedule. This scenario is no more thanks to CEREC same-day dental crowns! Patients in the Wrentham, Massachusetts area know they can get these cutting-edge CEREC crowns from Dr. Anshuman Rawat and the team at Advanced Dental Practices.
CEREC dental crowns provide patients with an unmatched experience when it comes to convenience without sacrificing any of the strength or durability you would expect from a quality dental crown. Here are some other reasons why you should consider a CEREC same-day crown.
With the CEREC process, your dentist will utilize a slim, wand-like device that has a camera at the end of it so that your teeth and gums can be easily scanned. It is not just the less invasive nature of a digital image that makes it better than a traditional putty mold, but they are also more accurate. The camera used by your dentist will create precise and detailed images so that a same-day crown can be constructed and fit perfectly onto your tooth.
For years, if you require a crown, you would need to schedule an initial appointment so that impressions could be taken and sent to a lab. Then, a second appointment would need to be scheduled so you could return and get the permanent crown put into place. Thankfully, dentists have been seeking out an easier process for their patients. This is why dentists adopt the CEREC same-day dental crown process for their patients. A crown made using the CEREC process is made during a single appointment so you can leave with your newly restored smile.
Once digital impressions have been taken of your teeth, the design process for your new dental crown will begin using CAD/CAM software. This computer-aided design and manufacturing software will allow the crown to be customized so that you and your dentist are both satisfied with the look and fit of your crown. Once the design for your crown is completed, it will be sent to an in-office milling machine, where your new crown will be sculpted from a block of dental ceramic. Since a CEREC same-day crown is made right there for you at your dentist, there is never a need for a temporary crown.
Your CEREC same-day dental crown will allow you to smile with confidence because your restoration will have a completely natural look and feel. CEREC crowns also provide the same strength and durability that you find with traditional crowns made at an off-site lab. Once your crown has been crafted, the color, shade, and fit will all be checked before the crown is bonded to your tooth. Thanks to the incredible precision and accuracy of the digital images taken at the beginning of this process, alterations are usually very minor or completely unnecessary!
CEREC dental crowns offer unmatched convenience while providing the same durability and strength you would expect from a quality dental crown.
