How CEREC Crowns Work

Traditional crowns can take several weeks and multiple visits, requiring impressions, temporary crowns, and waiting on a dental lab. With CEREC technology, it’s all done in a single appointment using advanced digital tools.

Here’s how the process works:

  1. Tooth Preparation
    After numbing the area with a local anesthetic, your tooth is reshaped to fit the crown.
  2. Digital Impressions
    A small intraoral camera captures high-resolution images of your teeth. These images are used to create a 3D model of your mouth.
  3. Custom Digital Design
    Using CEREC software, we design your crown with exact specifications for shape, size, and fit.
  4. In-Office Milling
    The digital design is sent to the CEREC milling machine, which carves your crown from a ceramic block in under an hour.
  5. Placement & Bonding
    The crown is polished, adjusted if needed, and permanently cemented in place—all during your same appointment.
