CEREC® crowns give you a more convenient way to get your teeth protected with these versatile oral restorations. These crowns are made onsite at the dentist's office using a CEREC® milling machine that works similarly to the way a 3D printer works. CEREC® removes the need for multiple dental visits to get a crown. It makes it possible to get a crown that looks like real teeth in a single trip to the dentist.
Just as is the case with conventional crowns, CEREC® crowns do not require any special care. Good oral hygiene is all that is needed to keep these restorations in good condition. Those who practice good oral hygiene regularly can expect their crown to last anywhere between 15 and 25 years.
Here are some other things patients can do to get the most out of their CEREC® crowns:
The process of getting a CEREC® crown could not be more straightforward. It starts with the dentist evaluating the patient to determine if a crown is the best way to address their problems. Once the patient is cleared for crowns, the dentist will prepare any teeth that need them.
Digital images are taken and used to generate a computer model of the patient's teeth. The model is used to design the patient's restoration until the patient and dentist are both satisfied with what the crown will look like. The information is then sent to a CEREC® machine that creates the customized restoration from a block of ceramic. The patient walks out of the dentist's clinic with their smile restored.
