What Are CEREC Same-Day Dental Crowns?
A dental crown is a tooth-shaped cap that we place over the entire portion of a tooth that is visible above the gumline. Its job is to protect and fortify the underlying dentition, thereby restoring the tooth’s form and function. Traditionally, dental crowns are made in an off-site laboratory.
CEREC crowns are different. CEREC stands for Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics, and it is one of the latest, most convenient systems to grace modern dentistry. These machines use advanced CAD/CAM technology that allows Dr. Scarpitti to make high-quality crowns and other dental restorations right here in our Orlando dental office.
The Process of Getting a CEREC Same-Day Dental Crown
Here is a brief overview of the CEREC process:
- We will numb the area of your mouth where we will be working, and then start by preparing the tooth using traditional crown preparation techniques. This creates more room for the crown to comfortably fit.
- We will take a computerized scan with our intraoral digital impression technology. By mapping things out digitally, we can ensure the crown fits properly and looks completely natural. A digital version of the crown is made using this information.
- The digital version of your crown is sent to our in-office ceramic milling machine, where our skilled technicians will create your restoration. It will be shaped, polished, and colored to perfection.
- Dr. Scarpitti will likely place your crown that very same day, and after double-checking that it looks and feels normal, he will send you on your way!
