If you’re in need of a dental crown or other tooth restoration, CEREC single-visit dentistry in New York could provide just the solution you need.

In today’s busy world, dental patients often struggle to find the time to receive all the care they need to maintain healthy and aesthetically-pleasing teeth and gums. For example, consider the time needed for dental crowns. Decades ago, patients would need multiple appointments to enjoy this dental restoration. Thanks to advances in dental technology, today’s patients can receive a crown in just one visit to their dentist. Ebenezer Dental provides the CEREC crowns our patients need to look and feel their best.

What is CEREC Single-Visit Dentistry?

CEREC, or Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics, is a procedure that has been used to create more than four million dental restorations for patients around the world. The technology combines advanced 3D imaging with cutting-edge milling techniques – all guided by the latest computer design software. That innovative synthesis of technologies enables modern dentists to image, design, create, and fit high-quality dental crowns in roughly an hour.

How Does CEREC One-Visit Dentistry Work?

CEREC technology is used to take three-dimensional images of the patient’s tooth. Those images are then used by the computerized milling machine to craft a dental restoration that is custom-fit for the patient’s mouth. The entire design and milling process is managed by computer software, to ensure the most precise fit possible. Once crafted, the dentist completes the process by fitting the restoration within the patient’s mouth.

What Are the Advantages of CEREC Technology?

CEREC restorations offer many benefits. The most obvious advantage is the speed, since patients no longer need to make multiple trips to the dentist. Other advantages include:

  • Studies indicate that CEREC restorations are as reliable as gold restorations.
  • Aesthetically-pleasing. CEREC dental restorations offer tooth-colored crowns and fillings that can be matched to your natural teeth. The result? White, natural-looking restorations that are indistinguishable from the surrounding teeth!
  • No temporary fillings are needed. The entire imaging, crafting, and fitting process is all accomplished in about an hour, while you wait.
  • Just one appointment. That means that you never have to worry about trying to fit multiple appointments into your busy schedule.
  • Since the entire process takes place in the office, you can watch as your dentist designs your unique restoration from ceramic that is specifically selected to match your natural tooth color.
