First
and foremost, the restoration can be performed in a
single session, usually in about one hour. With CEREC,
there’s no need for us to make an impression and
send it to a lab. We won’t inconvenience you be
asking you to return for a second visit.
Secondly,
the restoration is natural looking, because it is made
of tooth colored ceramic material. It’s metal
free, no silver fillings to discolor your smile! The
ceramic material is compatible with tissue in your mouth
and is high grade, anti-abrasive, and plaque resistant.
It allows us to be extremely precise and save more of
the healthy part of your tooth. |
First
we prepare the damaged tooth by applying a thin layer
of reflective powder directly on the tooth’s surface.
Using a special camera, we then take a picture of the
tooth. We work from this photo, which is actually a
pin sharp optical impression of the tooth. Computer
Aided Design technology helps us design the restoration
fro the optical impression. You can actually watch us
design your new restoration on a full color computer
monitor right before your eyes!
