Why would you need a dental crown? You might see a crown as being limited to cavity treatment, but there are other instances where it can be a useful dental restoration. You could require support for an injured tooth, or need protection for a tooth that is underdeveloped. With CEREC Same-Day Crowns technology, a crown can be obtained in a single visit. On-site technology allows your dentist to record the necessary measurements and produce a durable, life-like ceramic crown that is ready to be placed on your tooth.
