Two friends taking a selfie together after cerec crowns, lindenhurst ny Have you had a dental crown in the past? If so, have you had to wait weeks for the final restoration and endure an ill-fitting temporary in the meantime?

Fortunately, CEREC technology has eliminated these inconveniences and made same-day dentistry a reality.

With CEREC, you can expect the following:

Same-Day Dental Crowns
Same-Day Inlays and Onlays

CEREC Same-Day Crowns in Four Steps

Modern dentistry means making life easier for our patients. Below, we outline the steps necessary to create a quality porcelain crown or inlay and onlay while you wait!

Tooth Prep

Your dentist carefully prepares the tooth for crowning by shaping it and removing any jagged edges or old filling material.

Digital Scanning

Using our comfortable digital scanner, the dentist takes an impression of the prepared tooth and sends it to our computer.

Crown Creation

After the computer designs your new tooth crown to specification, we send it to our onsite printer for fabrication and printing.

Final Adjustments

After printing your porcelain crown, our Lindenhurst dentist makes final adjustments to fit and color before cementing it over your tooth.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are same-day CEREC® crowns any good?

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.

What Is a Dental Crown?

A dental crown is a tooth-shaped cap that fits over a treated tooth or dental implant post to the gumline. We can also use crowns to conceal tooth imperfections.

Our dental crowns, including CEREC crowns in Lindenhurst, are durable and always customized to resemble neighboring teeth in shape and color.

Reasons You May Need a Dental Crown

Dental crowns are used widely across dentistry and are the most versatile restoration.

Dental Crowns in Restorative Dentistry

If you have a tooth injury, deep tooth decay, or we’ve recently treated you for a root canal infection, you’ll likely need a dental crown to preserve the tooth and restore structural integrity. Without the crown, the tooth is at risk for loss or fracture.

Dental Crowns in Tooth Replacement

Dental crowns cap dental implant posts after they’ve had a chance to integrate into the jawbone. The crown acts as your new tooth. In bridgework, dental crowns connect one or two artificial teeth to healthy teeth.

Dental Crowns in Cosmetic Dentistry

Tooth crowns can conceal a wide range of tooth imperfections, including:

Short Teeth
Discolored Teeth
Unusually Shaped Teeth
Small Spaces Between Teeth
General Chips and Imperfections
