CEREC® Crowns in a Day

Restore your smile—keep your schedule.

What is CEREC?

CEREC by Sirona Dental Systems is the world’s only system for the fabrication of all-ceramic dental restorations in one office visit. With CEREC at your dentist’s side, you can be in and out in a single visit with a permanent, all-ceramic crown, onlay, or veneer! For you, the patient, this means fewer injections, less drilling, and less time out of your hectic schedule for dental care.

How do we create CEREC crowns and onlays in just one appointment?

Digital Impression

After examining the tooth and determining the course of treatment, we will prepare your tooth for restoration, similarly to traditional treatment methods. Your prepared tooth will be coated with a safe, tasteless powder. We then uses a state-of-the-art digital 3D camera to create an optical impression. This digital image replaces the physical impression required in traditional procedures. No more long waits while a tray of impression goop hardens in your mouth.

Computer Aided Design (CAD)

State-of-the-art CAD software allows us to design every precise detail of your restoration with the accuracy you’ve come to expect from us. The software allows us to customize the shape of the restoration to exactly fit your specific clinical needs.

Mill and Place

While you wait, exact design specifications are sent to our on­site milling machine to create your restoration. About 15 minutes later you restoration is ready for placement. Your new restoration is then fitted, polished and bonded for permanence. You tooth is restored back to its natural form, function, and beauty.
