What is CEREC technology?
Tooth damage can demand multiple visits to the dentist, resulting in costly, time-consuming treatment. However, as technology in the field of dentistry advances, you can avoid the inconveniences of multiple-session procedures. Modern mechanisms such as CEREC makes same-day dentistry a reality.
CEREC stands for Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics, or just simply Ceramic Reconstruction, and exemplifies the height of state-of-the-art dental repair technology. CEREC utilizes 3D photography paired with computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing to assist your dentist in designing and producing high-quality tooth restorations in a single visit, eliminating the need to take impressions. CEREC technology can aid your dentist in same-day filling replacements, and restorations for varying levels of damage a tooth may have.

Cost Effective
Many times, repairs require multiple trips to the dentist, meaning numerous copays, and potentially multiple days needed to take off of work or other responsibilities. Your dental office understands the inconveniences associated with this, and that’s why we use CEREC same-day technology in our practice.
