We are proud to utilize the Cerec system for single appointment crowns and onlays. With this technology, your permanent crown can be made in our office in just one visit. Cerec is a computer generated CAD-CAM in-office milling system for the fabrication of crowns. The Cerec crowns are made of a special manufactured porcelain. They are all porcelain so they have the highest esthetics, and because the porcelain uses a very fine grain particle, they have the best wear properties of all the materials we use to restore teeth. They are bonded to the teeth for the best retention and decay prevention. Where appropriate* it is our finest restoration. And with Cerec there are no more temporaries while waiting for that new crown to come in or additional visits to seat the crown. It is all done in one appointment.   

*Cerecs are not for every tooth.  Single anterior crowns where traditional crowns are present make for an impossible color match.  And badly broken teeth often do not have enough tooth structure to support a Cerec restoration.  Teeth in the very back of the mouth, such as second molars, may not allow enough room for enough bulk of material for strength.  Ask any of our staff to see if a Cerec restoration is right for your tooth.
