The Process

CEREC, or Chairside Economical Restoration of Aesthetic Ceramics, uses a high quality ceramic material to match your natural tooth colour and fully restore damaged teeth- quickly, seamlessly and beautifully.

Built on state of the art CAD/CAM technology (Computer Aided Design/Computer Aided Manufacture) CEREC is a camera, computer and milling machine all rolled into one.

First, we make an image of your tooth which we then use to design the perfect restoration using the CAD technology.

Then, the CAM technology takes over to create the restoration, which is bonded in place by your dentist.

The entire process takes just over an hour.

CEREC AFTERCARE ADVICE

FAQs

CARING FOR YOUR NEWLY RESTORED TOOTH

Once your CEREC crown is in place it’s important that you follow a simple aftercare routine to make the most of your new tooth, including:

Does it hurt to get a CEREC crown put in place?

During the procedure we use a local anaesthetic so you shouldn’t feel any pain at all. Some patients experience some slight sensitivity for a short time after the crown has been fitted but it usually goes away on its own in a few days.

Any discomfort can usually be treated with an over the counter painkiller such as paracetamol or ibuprofen.

How long will my new CEREC crown last?

Crowns are made of inert materials that do not deteriorate but the underlying tooth is still prone to decay and gum disease. As long as the underlying tooth remains healthy and strong your new crown should last a very long time. In short, the better you take care of your new crown the longer it will last- usually anywhere from 10 to 15 years.

Are crowns difficult to care for?

Taking care of your new CEREC crown is as simple as looking after your own natural teeth. Regular brushing and flossing will keep it free from debris and the gums around it healthy. Occasionally, crowns may need a slight re-adjustment but otherwise it should look and feel strong and natural.
