Same Day Crowns in San Antonio, TX

Thanks to advances in dental technology, dental prostheses can be completed in a single visit using CAD/CAM technology known as CEREC.  CEREC stands for Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics and can be used to simplify dental procedures like dental crowns, dental implants, and dental bridges.

How CEREC Works

During your dental visit, your doctor may recommend using CEREC to complete dental work in one visit.  For dental crowns, your tooth will be prepared as normal for your dental crown, but instead of a temporary crown being placed, the CEREC technology will allow a permanent crown to be completed and placed on the same visit!  Crowns and bridges created with CEREC technology are just as durable as those created in a dental lab and eliminate the need to return for a second visit weeks later.

Benefits of CEREC

• One-session treatment for tooth restorations and implant;
• Decreased waiting time for clear braces;
• Accurate teeth impression which prevents bulky crowns or excessive debris;
• Fewer post-treatment side-effects;
• Aesthetic value due to the ceramic material;
• Much more resistant ceramic crowns and veneers than similar lab-made ceramic devices;
• A more comfortable experience for patients.

CEREC has made dental procedures easier, faster and more comfortable for 30 years. Given all its advantages, it is no wonder that more and more dentists switch to CEREC and leave traditional dental-lab made prosthesis behind.
