Have You Heard of CEREC Same-Day Dental Crowns?
CEREC, standing for Chairside Economical Restoration Esthetic Ceramics, is a breakthrough in dental technology that allows us to create and place high-quality dental crowns in just one appointment. This innovation is especially beneficial for patients with busy schedules who value efficient and effective dental care.
What Are CEREC Same-Day Dental Crowns?
CEREC crowns are not just about saving time; they are about preserving the quality of your dental care. Crafted from advanced ceramic materials, these crowns are designed to match the strength, function, and appearance of your natural teeth. They are a fantastic option for patients needing quick yet reliable restorative dental care.


Why Choose CEREC Same-Day Dental Crowns?
- Speed and Convenience: With CEREC, you receive your custom-made crown on the same day, reducing the need for multiple dental visits.
- Comfort and Quality: Experience less discomfort and sensitivity compared to traditional crown procedures. CEREC preserves more of your natural tooth and offers a snug, comfortable fit.
- Long-Lasting Results: CEREC crowns are durable, lasting up to 15 years, and provide excellent protection against future dental issues.
- Aesthetic and Safe: Our crowns are crafted from mercury-free materials and are designed to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, enhancing both the function and aesthetics of your smile.
The CEREC Process: A Seamless Experience
1. Consultation
Every CEREC procedure begins with a thorough consultation. Dr. Laughlin will evaluate your dental health and determine if a CEREC crown is the best option for you.
2. Digital Impression
We use a state-of-the-art 3D color camera to take a digital impression of your tooth. This process is quick, accurate, and comfortable, eliminating the need for traditional mold impressions.
3. In-House Fabrication
Our on-site milling machine fabricates your custom crown in about 15 minutes. This means no more waiting weeks for a dental lab to create your crown.
4. Placement
Finally, we place your new crown, ensuring a perfect fit. The crown is then glazed and bonded securely into place, leaving you with a beautifully restored tooth.
