What is a CEREC dental crown?

CEREC stands for Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics. A CEREC crown is designed to be fitted in just one day, as opposed to needing multiple dental visits to get a traditional dental crown.

With a CEREC crown, the Staley Dental team can design, fabricate, and place a crown in one office visit. Dental technology allows our team to create a high-quality ceramic dental crown right in our office, using 3D technology. Your mouth is scanned, and from there, a custom milling machine is able to make a crown that mimics the shape of the tooth that was once there.

The process is efficient, and the results are a dental crown that can be shaped to look like a real tooth. The color and shape of the CEREC crown will match your natural teeth, and no one will be able to tell the difference between your natural teeth and the CEREC crown.

What are the benefits of CEREC crowns?

The biggest benefit of a CEREC dental crown is that it can be done in one day. With a traditional dental crown, multiple dental appointments are needed, and a temporary crown is involved—which comes with the risk of it falling out while you are waiting for your more permanent crown. And when traditional dental crowns don’t fit properly, more trips to the dental office are needed so the crown can be re-fitted to be more comfortable for the patient.

Another benefit of a CEREC crown is its durability. A CEREC crown is made of strong ceramic, which means the tooth looks and feels like a natural tooth. With proper dental habits, which include twice daily brushing and flossing, your CEREC crown can last and last.

What is involved in the process of getting a CEREC crown?

Getting a CEREC crown is easy. Once your dentist has prepared the original tooth, they will use 3D scanning technology to make a digital impression of your mouth. A computer animated drawing (CAD) program will then create the shape and size of the crown that will fit into the space. A 3D printer and milling machine will then create the tooth out of high quality ceramic, which will look just like your natural tooth because it can be matched to the shade of your natural teeth.

Once the CEREC crown is made, it can be put into place by Staley Dental’s team. The process is simple and painless, and can be done in just one visit to our Boise, Idaho, office.

How do I care for my CEREC crown?

When taken care of properly, a CEREC dental crown can last you a decade or more. The key is proper maintenance of the CEREC crown, which includes daily brushing and flossing. Staley Dental also recommends regular biannual dental check-ups to ensure the longevity and appearance of your CEREC crown.

Is a CEREC crown right for me?

If you aren’t satisfied with your smile, or you have a damaged tooth in need of restorative dentistry, a CEREC crown may be your best choice. A complete dental evaluation by the Staley Dental team, including X-rays, will be able to tell you if you are a good candidate for a CEREC crown. Your dentist will be able to discuss all of your options, and together you can make an informed decision on how best to fix your smile so you can feel confident about it once again.
