Now You Can Have High-Tech
Crowns in One Visit With No
Temporaries and No Lab
Waits! Dental Crowns Clemmons NC
You know the routine. You
visit the dentist. You need a crown. The dentist
prepares the tooth, takes an impression, and places a
temporary crown. You then wait two weeks to return to
the dentist, and he places the permanent crown. And if
the fit isn’t perfect, then it goes back to the lab and
you wait again. And return to the dentist again.
But now, that’s all changed. Our doctors can reduce that
two-week waiting period and the two or three office
visits down to just a single visit with new technology!
This new technology is called CEREC, a computer-aided
design and milling device. CEREC allows us to create a
permanent crown in just a few minutes. Now, there’s no
more waiting for the lab and no return trips to the
dentist. Patients love it!
We are one of the first offices in the area to employ
the CEREC technology in our practice. The CEREC system
allows us to repair a damaged tooth in about an hour. We
no longer need to take impressions or create
temporaries, and CEREC enables us to satisfy patients
seeking a long-lasting, esthetic alternative to silver
or plastic fillings.
To make the restoration, we first paint a reflective
powder over the prepared tooth. Using a special camera,
we take an accurate picture of the tooth, and the
picture is then displayed on a computer screen, enabling
us to design the restoration. Then CEREC takes over and
automatically creates the restoration. Finally, we bond
the new restoration to the surface of the old tooth.
All this makes going to the dentist much easier and
faster, and who really wants to spend more time in the
dental chair?
