Cerec
With CEREC, teeth can be restored in a single
sitting with the patient, rather than the multiple sittings required with
earlier techniques. Additionally, with the latest software and hardware
updates, crowns, veneers, and inlays can be prepared, using different types of
ceramic material.
Advantages:
Cerec
crowns are made in one visit, saving considerable time for the patient and also
saving time and cost for the dentist.
With
Cerec, there is no need for a temporary crown, which eliminates a significant
potential discomfort for the patient.
Cerec
crowns have no metal in them, and thus are reasonably esthetic.
Cerec
material and technology can also be used for fillings. Since they are made out
of porcelain, they are more durable than white composite fillings.
While the initial investment in
Cerec technology is expensive, it saves money over the long run because there
is no extra lab technician fee for the dentist, and only one appointment is
required, not two.
