What are its biggest benefits?
- TIME
We know that our patients have busy lives, so we're always looking for ways to shorten treatment time. Rather than waiting for weeks for a new dental crown, you can have it in just one appointment with CEREC crowns.
Taking digital impressions is a speedy & pleasant procedure; you don't have to spend a long time on our dentist's chair biting into an impression tray full of putty. All it takes is a few minutes to take digital impressions with the use of a laser scanning device. Digital impressions also reduce impression-taking errors, resulting in a precise accurate finish, thus saving more time.
- PATIENT EXPERIENCE
Since we're able to create same-day crowns with CEREC technology right in our office, you'll never have to deal with the inconvenience of a temporary crown.
You also don't have to go through the discomfort of biting into a tray of pink putty as we know it's uncomfortable and triggers a gag reflex. Now, we use a slim hand-held device to take detailed pictures of your teeth and gums, creating a digital impression instead.
- ACCURACY
We use digital impressions to take highly accurate scans of your teeth and gums. With this, we can create same-day crowns that look and feel natural. Your CEREC crown will fit better since we base the design on highly precise scans.
The ability to see the impression on-screen allows our dentists to evaluate any errors and have them corrected right then and there while you are still on the chair.
