Maximize Your Dental Crown Experience with Our Advanced CEREC Dental Crowns Treatment

A radiant, healthy smile can be one of your best features. However, this beauty can easily be marred by accidental injury. A cracked or broken tooth is not only unsightly but also prone to infection and decay, which can spread to healthy teeth and cause even more oral health issues. CEREC same-day crowns provide an efficient and effective solution for repairing damaged teeth. Dr. Tyler Wynne from Carolinas BioHealth Dentistry in Clemmons, North Carolina, is your go-to CEREC dentist near me. These FAQs provide further information on CEREC crown technology and its benefits.

What does CEREC stand for?

The acronym CEREC stands for “Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics”. Dr. Wynne and our team use computer-aided design and manufacturing (CAD/CAM) technology to create high-quality crowns on the same day as your initial visit.

What’s the difference between CEREC crowns and traditional crowns?

Traditional crowns can be made of various materials, such as gold, composite resin, ceramic, porcelain, and a combination of these. The process can take up to two weeks as the crowns are milled at an off-site lab. During this time, a temporary crown can be placed on your tooth to protect your tooth.

High-quality porcelain (ceramic) material is used to create CEREC crowns, which can be finished in just one dental visit. Using CEREC technology, we can design and mill your crown at our Clemmons dental office to streamline your treatment. Once your crown is ready, we will place it over your tooth, make any required adjustments, and permanently cement it in place to finalize the procedure. CEREC porcelain teeth crowns are strong, stain-resistant, beautiful, and enduring and will restore your smile with remarkable precision.

What problems can CEREC crowns correct?

Several issues with your teeth can be resolved with CEREC crowns to enhance both their function and appearance. We may recommend placing a crown on a tooth with:

• severe structural damage
• a large filling due to severe decay
• extensive wear and tear
• a fragile tooth structure due to a previous root canal treatment 
• cosmetic defects like stains, irregular size, or misshapen tooth structure 

How do I take care of a CEREC crown?

CEREC porcelain crowns only need good oral hygiene and routine cleanings to stay strong and healthy – just like natural teeth.

How long do CEREC crowns last?

With proper oral care, your crown can last up to 15 years. CEREC technology speeds up your treatment without compromising on quality. Due to advanced CAD/CAM technology, same-day CEREC crowns are made with even greater accuracy and precision.
