The simple answer here is… yes! For most patients, at least. CEREC® (Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics) crowns are made from durable ceramic that mimics the look and strength of natural teeth.
However, CEREC crowns may not be ideal for every case. In some cases — namely, those involving back molars that endure heavy chewing pressure or when a patient needs a metal-based crown for added strength — a lab-fabricated dental crown might be recommended. That said, for most front and mid-mouth restorations, same-day CEREC crowns offer a strong, convenient, and aesthetically pleasing solution.
The Convenience of CEREC
When you need a dental crown, waiting weeks for a lab-made restoration is a massive inconvenience. That’s where same-day CEREC crowns come in! These high-quality ceramic crowns are designed and fabricated on-site at your dentist’s office using advanced CAD/CAM (computer-aided design/manufacturing) technology and permanently placed in your mouth, all in a single dental visit!
Also, as the scans for the crown design are taken digitally using intraoral cameras, CEREC eliminates the need for messy impressions and maximizes precision, ensuring a custom fit and reducing the risk of discomfort or bite issues.
