SAME-DAY CROWNS (CEREC) IN ST CLAIR

Protect, Cover, and Restore Your Smile

Ceramic restorations are the future of dentistry. They are strong, beautiful and the longest-lasting restoration available today. These ceramic restorations are done in a single visit, which means:
  • No messy impressions (or gagging)
  • No additional anaesthetic on a different visit
  • Do not need flimsy, temporary crowns
  • Fully inserted and set, ready to use straight away

What is a CEREC Crown?

CEREC crowns are a type of dental restoration that uses computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) technology for the efficient and same-day creation of natural-looking, durable dental crowns.

CEREC is next-level dentistry for those who simply want something that will last and at the same time look cosmetically beautiful. Several advantages include reduced treatment time, increased accuracy due to digital impressions, and the convenience of receiving a permanent crown in just one appointment.

This is the ultimate in single-visit restoration of decayed or broken teeth.

Your Same-Day Crown Appointment

Digital
Impressions

Instead of using traditional physical impressions, a digital scanner is employed to create a 3D image of the tooth or teeth that require the crown. No more messy impression materials – just quick and easy imaging.

Step

1

CAD
Technology

The digital impression is sent to a computer where CAD technology is used to design the crown. Your dentist can customise the crown’s shape and size to precisely fit your patient’s tooth and bite.

Step

2

Design Customisation

Your dentist can make real-time adjustments to the digital design, to ensure your crown meets both your functional needs and looks great. This allows for a high degree of customisation and precision.

Step

3

CAM
Milling

Once the design is finalised, the information is sent to a milling machine that uses CAM technology. This machine crafts the dental crown from a solid block of ceramic or other tooth-coloured material. The milling process is typically quick, so your crown is ready the same day.

Step

4

Immediate Placement

Unlike traditional crown procedures that require a temporary crown while waiting for a laboratory to fabricate the permanent one, CEREC crowns are placed on the same day as the initial preparation appointment. No need for a temporary crown or multiple visits – it’s all done in one day.

Step

5

Aftercare
Essentials

Just like natural teeth, you should have regular checkups at Dental Society to ensure that your dental crowns, as well as your entire oral health, are in the best shape possible.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between CEREC crowns and traditional crowns?
CEREC crowns and traditional crowns differ primarily in their fabrication process and treatment timeline. With CEREC crowns, advanced CAD/CAM technology allows for same-day creation right in the dental office. This means no need for multiple appointments or temporary crowns. These crowns are typically made of ceramic materials, providing both aesthetic appeal and functionality. In contrast, traditional crowns involve off-site fabrication in a dental laboratory, requiring at least two appointments and the use of temporary crowns during the interim. Traditional crowns can be crafted from various materials, and the choice depends on factors like tooth location and aesthetic preferences.
Dental crowns can range in price depending on the material used in the crown and the size of the tooth. Dental crowns can be made from different kinds of ceramic or metal, although porcelain tooth crowns are the most popular choice. This is because they look more natural, as they can be colour-matched to your existing teeth. To find out more about our pricing, feel free to contact us on: (08) 8463 0814 to discuss our payment options.
The lifespan of a dental crown can vary between 5 and 15 years. Some dental crowns are sturdier than others, and may last 25 – 30 years. Just like natural teeth, you need to maintain your dental crowns properly with regular 6-monthly check-up appointments. You also need to brush and floss your teeth daily.
Before your procedure, your St Clair dentist will apply a local anaesthetic to the area to make it nice and numb. At most, you may feel a gentle pressure on your tooth. You may be sore for a few days after as your mouth adjusts to the new crown, but it should never cause you any outright pain.
Dental insurance coverage varies, but some plans offer partial coverage for CEREC Crowns, especially if deemed medically necessary. We can assist in verifying your insurance coverage and explore financing options to make your implant treatment accessible and affordable.
Cerec Crowns are designed to look and feel like natural teeth. The prosthetic tooth is crafted to match the surrounding teeth’s colour, shape, and size, ensuring a natural appearance.
