If you have a tooth in need of a dental restoration, then we want to place a crown that helps ensure a lifelike appearance and quality repair. In addition, we don’t want you to need two or three visits to receive one. Instead, your Auburn Hills, MI, dentist can help restore your smile in one visit with the CEREC system!
When A Tooth Benefits From Crowns
A dental crown, also known as a full restoration, will cap your tooth and cover the entire visible portion of it. Which means our team can address minor and severe restorative concerns, returning teeth to full function, health, and beauty. In fact, with the CEREC system, we can use CAD/CAM technology to design and complete a restoration in one visit, placing in the same sitting too.
Our team could recommend one when a tooth is cracked, chipped, or broken, or to add length to worn down structure too. Placement could address advanced tooth decay or even complete a root canal for an infected tooth. We could use them to address misshapen teeth too, and also improve bite balance and chewing function. For those with missing teeth, one or two could secure a bridge to take on minor tooth loss, or we could use one to restore a single tooth dental implant.
The Same-Day CEREC Process
The CEREC process allows us to create and place them same-day. We start by numbing the tooth being treated so we can comfortably remove structure to make room for your new restoration. Next, we will take detailed digital images of the prepared tooth, using these to create a 3D impression that is far more accurate than a traditional physical one. We then upload the design into an onsite milling machine, which crafts your crown from ceramic, a durable material that we can color match to blend with your smile. In the same sitting, we then attach your new crown.
Keeping Your Smile Healthy
To keep your newly restored tooth bright and also safeguard your natural tooth structures, we suggest brushing and flossing daily. You also benefit from a reduced amount of sugar and starch in your diet, and by avoiding tobacco products. We also recommend finding time to see our team for a checkup and cleaning every six months. If you have any questions about how we create and place same-day crowns with the CEREC system, or if you have a chipped or aching tooth, then contact our team today.
