What is CEREC?
Considered one of the most updated and advanced forms of dental equipment, CEREC relies on CAD/CAM (Computer-Aided Design/Computer-Aided Manufacturing) technology. Helping to create customized dental restorations (i.e., dental crowns), CEREC generates three-dimensional models of teeth that are sent to an in-house milling unit that is used to fabricate the crowns. This allows for fewer dental visits and faster results.
How Does CEREC Work?
When choosing to have a CEREC crown as opposed to a traditional dental crown, the process of cleaning the tooth remains the same. However, once the tooth is cleaned and prepped, our team at Westlake Hills Dental Arts uses a specialized impression system to capture a three-dimensional image of your teeth. This forms to create a digital model that is used by our team to generate the look and design of your new tooth.
When ready, we will send the image and appropriate information to our in-house milling unit. While you wait, the machine will fabricate your customized dental crown so that it looks and feels completely natural when put into place.
With CEREC, there is no need for a temporary crown, and you only need to visit our dental office once.
