- Candidacy. Before going through the steps for a dental crown, our team will first provide an assessment to determine if a dental crown is best for repairing a tooth.
- Preparation. Some tooth structure needs to be removed to prepare for the dental crown.
Our dental procedures are designed for both efficiency and patient convenience. One of our advanced techniques involves the creation of porcelain crowns right in the dental chair using CEREC technology. Here’s a closer look at the process:
CEREC Crowns:
We utilize cutting-edge CEREC technology, allowing us to craft custom porcelain crowns while you wait. This innovative approach streamlines the procedure, ensuring that you leave with a restored tooth in just one appointment. Here’s how it works:
Assessment:
Before proceeding with a dental crown, our experienced team conducts a thorough assessment to determine if a crown is the most suitable solution for your tooth repair needs. We carefully evaluate your dental health and discuss the best treatment options with you.
Preparation:
To prepare the tooth for a crown, some tooth structure is gently removed. This step ensures that the crown will fit securely and blend seamlessly with your natural teeth. We prioritize your comfort during this phase, and local anesthesia is administered as needed to minimize any discomfort.
CEREC Technology:
This is where CEREC shines. With our state-of-the-art CEREC equipment, we can create your custom porcelain crown right on-site. This eliminates the need for multiple appointments and temporary crowns, streamlining the process for your convenience.
Same-Day Restoration:
Once the crown is meticulously crafted, it is promptly bonded into place during the same appointment. You won’t have to wait for days or weeks with a temporary crown – you leave our office with a permanent restoration that looks and feels natural.
Our commitment to utilizing advanced techniques like CEREC ensures that you receive top-notch dental care with minimal disruption to your daily life. Your candidacy is assessed with care, and our preparation process is carried out with precision and your comfort in mind. With CEREC technology, you can count on efficient, same-day crown placement to restore your smile.
