Yes, CEREC restorations are made from high-quality ceramic materials that are extremely durable and strong. They can withstand normal chewing forces and typically last 15+ years with proper care, comparable to traditional restorations.
Absolutely! CEREC restorations are made from tooth-colored ceramic that closely matches your natural teeth. The computer-aided design ensures proper shape and contours, making them virtually indistinguishable from your natural teeth.
The CEREC procedure is no more uncomfortable than traditional restorative procedures. We use local anesthesia to ensure your comfort during preparation. Many patients find it more comfortable since there are no impressions and no temporary restorations that might cause sensitivity.
Care for your CEREC restoration just like your natural teeth! Brush twice daily with fluoride toothpaste, floss regularly, and visit us for routine cleanings. Avoid chewing on hard objects and consider a night guard if you grind your teeth.
CEREC crowns offer significant advantages over traditional crowns: same-day completion eliminates multiple appointments and temporary crowns, digital impressions are more comfortable than messy putty impressions, precise CAD/CAM technology ensures better fit and aesthetics, metal-free ceramic materials are biocompatible and natural-looking, and you can see your crown being made in real-time. Traditional crowns require 2-3 weeks and multiple visits with uncomfortable temporaries.
CEREC crowns typically last 15-20 years or more with proper care, which is comparable to or even longer than traditional crowns. The high-quality ceramic materials used in CEREC restorations are extremely durable and resistant to wear. Factors that influence longevity include oral hygiene, regular dental checkups, avoiding hard foods like ice or nuts, and not using teeth as tools. Many patients have CEREC crowns that have lasted over two decades with excellent function and appearance.
CAD/CAM stands for Computer-Aided Design/Computer-Aided Manufacturing. This advanced dental technology uses a 3D intraoral scanner to capture precise digital impressions of your teeth, then specialized software designs your restoration with exact measurements and natural contours. The design is sent to a milling machine that carves your crown, inlay, or onlay from a solid block of high-quality ceramic material. This entire process happens chairside in our office, allowing us to create and place your restoration in a single visit with exceptional precision and fit.
