Damaged teeth can make life uncomfortable and even painful. Fortunately, today’s dentists have the technology to restore and protect damaged teeth, so you can socialize and dine without worry. If you have missing teeth and want them restored quickly, consider CEREC services at Precision Dental in Brisbane and Fortitude Valley.
What is CEREC?
CEREC stands for Chairside Economical Restoration and Esthetic Ceramics and is a dental service to repair a damaged tooth by placing a dental crown on it. CEREC crowns are also known as same day crowns because they are created with the help of computer-aided design and manufacturing right in the dental office in one office visit.
A dental crown is the best solution to restore function to your tooth and protect it from further damage with a prosthesis that looks and feels like a natural tooth. With the help of digital 3D x-rays and scans of your mouth and teeth, a customized crown will be created to protect your tooth and fit with precision and comfort. A CEREC crown is manufactured with one block of material of either ceramic or resin to provide strength and durability.
Dental Crowns: A Preferred Dental Solution
A dental crown is a prosthesis that looks and functions like a natural tooth. It is created to fit over the damaged tooth to restore function. In some cases, a dental crown may be used to cover and protect a tooth that has had root canal treatment, so that you keep the tooth after the root canal has been cleaned and disinfected. The following are some general reasons why a dental crown is used:
Repair and restore chipped, cracked and broken teeth
Dental crowns are the best way to save a tooth so it stays in your mouth longer. This is preferred over tooth removal, because removing a tooth also removes its root, leading to jawbone shrinkage.
