Do you need a dental restoration, but don't want to wait multiple visits for your final results? With CEREC you can easily receive your treatment in one simple visit to your dentist. Utilizing cutting edge computer mapping, CEREC is able to make a complex 3D map of the desired tooth or teeth. It allows dentists to quickly restore damaged teeth with natural-colored ceramic fillings, saving patients time. CEREC has two decades of clinical research and practical experience to support its success with more than 8 million restorations performed worldwide. How CEREC Works CEREC, which stands for Ceramic Reconstruction, is a recent innovation that many cosmetic dentists are using to provide natural looking crowns faster than traditional crown procedures. This is a computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing, or CAD-CAM, for the creation of your crown. This crown is created by a computer to fit your tooth perfectly. With the CEREC system, your cosmetic dentist in Park City can create beautiful life-like porcelain restorations for your teeth. An infrared camera takes images of your tooth after shaping. A CAD-CAM computer program immediately downloads the images of your teeth to create a three-dimensional virtual model that can be viewed and manipulated on the computer monitor. The computer aided technology eliminates the laboratory step in manufacturing your crown, which allows for your treatment to be completed in one visit. Benefits of CEREC Restoring your tooth, or teeth, with CEREC brings an array of benefits to your smile. One of the main benefits is that they can be created in a single visit, which saves time for you and your dentist. Potential discomfort is eliminated because there is no need for a temporary crown between procedures, which allows for a more comfortable experience. CEREC crowns also do not contain any metal, allowing them to be esthetically pleasing and natural looking. CEREC crowns are also beneficial for your tooth restoration for these reasons: * Less time is spent in the dental chair
* Hi-Tech accuracy
* Less tooth structure is lost in many cases
* Natural, tooth-colored restoration
* Less chance for complications with preservation of healthy tissue
* CEREC is environmentally friendly
* Precise for long-lasting results A tooth-colored restoration means no more silver fillings to discolor your smile. Your dentist no longer needs to create temporaries or take impressions to send to the lab. CEREC restorations have been proven precise, safe and effective. CEREC allows you to have a fully restored, natural-looking crown, veneer or inlays in one simple visit. It eliminates messy impressions, and discomfort of temporary crowns. If you are in need of a dental restoration, contact your Park City dentist for more information on how CEREC works and if it is an appropriate solution for bringing your smile back to life.
