How Does it Work?
After we prepare your tooth, a special camera takes an optical impression and relays the exact specifications to a computer, which then designs on screen (as shown above) a precise restoration to fit your tooth. Then the milling function actually manufacturers the solid, one-piece restoration. We bond it into your tooth and you are finished in just one visit.
We use a ceramic material that is so natural looking that even on close inspection you will not be able to distinguish it from your natural tooth.
The many benefits of our material include:
• Strong enough to withstand the daily grinding of food
• No strange metallic tastes as you can with amalgams (silver fillings)
• Not sensitive to hot and cold
• Because the ceramic surface is smooth it is remarkably resistant to bacterial build-up
CEREC technology is the pinnacle of dental restoration technology, allowing us to perform complex procedures quickly, precisely, efficiently and with stunningly beautiful results. |
