CEREC Dentist Vancouver WA
Natural-Looking Crowns Made While You Wait
In the past, having a
tooth repaired with a crown took a lot of time. First, there was the
initial appointment, involving messy putty impressions and placing
the temporary. Then you were delayed a week or more while an
out-of-town lab cast the permanent crown. Afterwards, a follow-up
appointment was necessary for your dental crowns dentist to place the crown. And
if it didn't fit correctly, the entire process started all over
again.
Thankfully, modern technology has made it possible to
streamline the process. Instead of a two-week timeframe, in about
one hour you can have your new permanent crown placed in your mouth.
With CEREC computer-aided design and milling, the fit will be
perfect, the crown will be durable, and our stain and glazing
process will match the look of your natural teeth. CEREC enables us
to satisfy patients seeking a long-lasting, aesthetic alternative to
silver or plastic fillings.
The process works like this:
- With a specialized camera, a detailed image of the prepared tooth is captured and uploaded into our computer.
- No need for squishy, foul-tasting impressions or the resulting temporaries.
- The restoration is designed and CEREC generates the crown.
- Then, we insert and bond the restoration to your tooth.
Our patients are thrilled with this time-saving new technique for fitting and inserting crowns. You will be, too!
