If you\u2019re considering a CEREC dental crown<\/a>, it\u2019s normal to have a few questions. After all, not every dentist offers this incredible treatment. Here are four common questions people are curious about when it comes to CEREC, and why these dynamic restorations may just be the answer you\u2019ve been searching for!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

What Does CEREC Stand For?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The acronym CEREC stands for chairside economical restoration of esthetic ceramics. These dental crowns can be made right in your dentist\u2019s officed using CAD\/CAM technology. Instead of relying on impressions that must be sent to a laboratory and could take weeks to be made, your CEREC crown uses digital impressions and can be ready in  just one appointment!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What are the Benefits of CEREC Crowns?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In addition to their faster turnaround time, CEREC crowns have the amazing benefit of being made with natural-looking ceramic. Plus, because they can be ready the same day that your dentist removes your damaged enamel, they protect your tooth from damage and further exposure to bacteria that it may have otherwise encountered with a temporary crown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Long Does CEREC Treatment Take?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Unlike a getting traditional, lab-made dental crown, CEREC crown treatments can be done in about one to two hours. Amazingly, most of that time is usually just to reshape the tooth, not to create the crown itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Long do CEREC Crowns Last?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

While your CEREC crown has the potential to last for many years, typically they stay in excellent condition for between 10 and 15 years, which is about the same as a lab-made ceramic or tooth-colored prosthetic. To make the most of your restoration, please be sure to brush your teeth twice a day, floss daily, visit your dentist every six months for your regular dental check-ups, and avoid using your crown for anything other than food.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CEREC crowns are durable, natural-looking restorations that can restore your smile in as little as two hours. To learn more about this treatment, speak to your dentist and repair your gorgeous grin faster than you ever thought possible!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
