What Are Porcelain Crowns? 

Porcelain crowns are custom-crafted dental caps we place over weak or damaged teeth to restore their natural size, shape, strength, function, and appearance. At Dr. Rick’s dental practice, we offer same-day CEREC crowns using the latest technology and techniques. These porcelain restorations provide an exceptional fit and superior function without dealing with long wait times. 

Why Would You Require a Porcelain Crown?

The following are some reasons Dr. Rick may recommend a porcelain crown: 

• To protect a weakened or severely damaged tooth 
• To support a tooth with a large filling
• To hold together the pieces of a fractured or cracked tooth 
• To preserve a tooth that’s undergone root canal therapy
• To replace failing or missing teeth by covering dental implants or supporting dental bridges
• To correct minor misalignment or close small gaps between teeth
• To improve the appearance of severely stained, discolored, worn, or misshapen teeth
• To make cosmetic modifications by enhancing the color, size, shape, or overall appearance of a tooth

What Is the Porcelain Crown Procedure? 

The CEREC crown process begins by removing any damaged tooth structure and reshaping the affected tooth to make room for your restoration. Next, Dr. Rick will use cutting-edge scanning technology to capture 3D digital impressions of your teeth without needing messy or uncomfortable putty. 

Our experienced cosmetic dentist will use proprietary software to create a virtual model of your new crown before sending it to our onsite milling machine. The innovative equipment will meticulously craft your same-day crown from a single solid block of high-quality dental porcelain.

Dr. Rick will ensure your one-hour crown provides a perfect fit and a seamless match to the neighboring teeth before securing it in place. He will make any needed adjustments for a comfortable bite and optimal function. 

Why Choose Same-Day CEREC Crowns? 

CEREC crowns offer many benefits, including the following: 

• Our CEREC crowns are designed and crafted from an aesthetic porcelain material in just one hour, unlike traditional crowns that typically require two appointments over several weeks. 
• Our digital scanning technology captures 3D models of your teeth with exceptional precision, so you won’t need traditional impressions using messy dental putty. 
• You won’t need to wear a temporary crown while waiting for a dental lab to create your new permanent tooth restoration.
• CEREC crowns closely match the color, texture, and translucency of your natural teeth, delivering seamless smiles. 
• Our high-quality porcelain crown materials are incredibly durable, enhancing your smile for many years to come with proper care.
