The world of dentistry is undergoing remarkable advancements, and one innovative technology that has transformed how we restore smiles is CEREC technology.
CEREC, which stands for Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics, is a revolutionary process of creating dental crowns and bridges in a single appointment. Traditional methods often involve multiple appointments, messy impressions, and temporary restorations. CEREC changes the game by utilizing computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) to produce custom restorations on-site, often within a single appointment.
At Emery L. Edwards DDS, we offer CEREC same-day dental crowns and bridges as an excellent option for individuals seeking convenience, efficiency, and high-quality restorations.
Our dentist in Gulfport, MS, will first prepare the tooth by removing any decay or damaged portions. Digital impressions of the tooth are then taken using a specialized camera. The digital impressions are used to create a 3D model of the restoration using CAD technology. Then, our dentist will design the crown or bridge based on your tooth's dimensions and contours.
The designed restoration is sent to our in-office milling machine, which fabricates the crown or bridge from a block of high-quality ceramic material. Once the restoration is milled, your dentist will refine its shape, fit, and aesthetics. The final restoration is then bonded to your tooth using dental adhesive.
Your dentist will ensure that the restoration fits perfectly and matches the color of your natural teeth. Any necessary adjustments will be made to ensure your comfort and bite alignment.
Traditional crowns and bridges required multiple appointments over weeks. CEREC technology allows you to receive your restoration in a single visit, saving you time and hassle.
With CEREC, you won't need to wear a temporary restoration while waiting for your final crown or bridge to be fabricated in a dental lab. The entire process is completed in one appointment.
Digital impressions and computer-aided design ensure precise measurements and a snug fit for your crown or bridge.
CEREC eliminates the need for messy impression materials, making the process more comfortable for patients.
CEREC restorations in Gulfport, MS, are known for their durability and longevity, providing years of functional and aesthetic benefits.
The ceramic material used in CEREC restorations closely resembles natural tooth enamel, resulting in a restoration that seamlessly blends with your smile.
CEREC restorations are often more conservative than traditional crowns, as they require less removal of healthy tooth structure.
CEREC same-day dental crowns and bridges mark a remarkable advancement in modern dentistry, offering convenience, precision, and immediate results. With this innovative approach, you can enjoy the benefits of a fully restored smile in a fraction of the time it would take using traditional methods. For the best care, visit Emery L.
