You can have several strong, beautiful restorations placed in a fraction of the time it would traditionally take.Īlthough Cerec is our proffered method of fabricating crowns or onlays, we do offer other options. This technology allows us to design and fabricate restorations at the same time. Typically this calls for a “quadrant treatment plan.” Quadrant dentistry can entail more than one restoration of any type – inlays, onlays, crowns or fillings.Ĭerec provides you with the opportunity to make the most efficient use of your time in the dental chair and complete multiple restorations in the same appointment. It’s not unusual that more than one tooth needs to be restored. Multiple restorations save even more time. As with any Cerec restoration, it can be done in one visit without the drudgery of impressions, temporary crown and return visit. The Cerec crown can help preserve healthy, natural tooth structure. Although the PFM can mimic natural tooth appearance, the metal limits translucency and can sometime show though as a dark line, especially at the gum line.

Unlike the old PFM (porcelain fused to metal) crowns, Cerec is metal free. With its enamel-like material, the Cerec crown looks and feels like your real teeth. The Cerec crown is a beautiful looking, single-visit restoration.
CEREC FILLING CRACKED
A crown may be needed to protect a weakened tooth from breaking or to hold together parts of a cracked tooth, to restore a broken tooth or a tooth that has been severely worn down, or to replace old, failing restorations or fillings. As with any Cerec restoration, it can be done in one visit, without the drudgery of impression materials, temporary onlays and a return appointment associated with lab-created onlays.Ī crown is a tooth-shaped cap that’s placed over the tooth to restore its shape and size, strength or improve its appearance. Besides the natural look and feel, but most importantly, we can see through Cerec onlays and inlays on X-rays and catch new cavities before it’s too late. Compared to composite (plastic) onlays, Cerec’s metal-free, enamel-like material looks and feels like your real teeth and helps restore your tooth to its original strength. The Cerec inlay or onlay will provide a strong, aesthetic, long-lasting restoration. Instead of grinding down healthy tooth structure for a crown, we only remove the old filling, any fractures and/or decay and replace what’s missing with a custom puzzle piece of porcelain. We are very conservative and always keep tooth structure whenever possible. No mess, no discomfort, no wait.Ĭerec inlays and onlays can be used to replace large existing fillings that need to be replaced but are too extensive for a new filling. In the course of one visit, we can diagnose and prepare your damaged tooth, create an optical impression of the tooth, and use Cerec to design and mill a precision restoration, which is then permanently bonded to your tooth. Burnside Dental Practice has years of experience with Ceramic and Crown Fillings. No temporary or second visit is required and the aesthetics are beautiful. Cerec Ceramic Crown and Filling: Look and Feel Great. Cerec technology allows us to create a strong, customised, tooth-coloured ceramic restorations right here at the office, usually within a single appointment. See a blog by dentist Marko Ahonen on the Cerec method.
