Improved crown designĬEREC® crowns are made to a higher level of precision that conventional crowns. The patient walks out of the clinic with a crown that blends in with the rest of their teeth instead of a temporary crown that is a one-size-fits-all type restoration. It takes about 30 minutes to make the patient's customized crown. With CEREC®, the crown is made at the clinic while the patient waits. This is the average time it takes for the dental lab that makes their crown to get it back to the dentist. Patients who get conventional crowns have to wear a temporary one for around two weeks. Dentists typically advise patients to go with ceramic crowns when the appearance of their teeth is a top priority. Ceramic is a naturally white material just like teeth, and it is just as translucent. Amazing aestheticsĬEREC® crowns are made from ceramic blocks and ceramic crowns are known for their great aesthetics. Benefits of CEREC® crownsĬEREC® crowns provide other benefits besides being a more convenient way to fit teeth with crowns. CEREC® requires only one visit to prepare the patient's tooth, take digital images, create a customized crown and attach it to the patient's tooth. The second visit involves taking off the temporary crown and attaching a customized crown that was made in a dental lab. The first involves preparing the patient's teeth for the crown, taking an impression and fitting the patient with a temporary crown. The standard way to get a dental crown requires at least two visits to the dentist. They hide all the flaws on the teeth and protects them from bite forces and irritants in the mouth, like bacteria. Crowns are teeth covers that go over the visible part of teeth. Finally, we carefully place and seal the final restoration.CEREC® crowns are a more convenient way to get damaged teeth protected with the restoration they need. Next, the milling unit crafts the restoration from a single block of dental grade porcelain. This digital impression is sent to our milling unit where we design a restoration to fit seamlessly into the smile line. We then use the CEREC digital impression system to capture an accurate representation of the bite with the prepared tooth. We start by carefully removing any damaged structure and otherwise preparing the tooth. We welcome Crookston residents as well as patients from Thief River Falls and other nearby communities.ĬEREC stands for chairside economical restoration of esthetic ceramics and is a computer assisted design and manufacture (CAD/CAM) system that allows our team to quickly design, craft, and place a custom dental restoration including crowns and bridges in just one office visit saving patients time and offering superior customizability for our patients as we are able to make adjustments in our office immediately as needed.ĬEREC dental restorations are designed, crafted, and placed in the same way that we place traditional crowns, bridges, inlays, and onlays except the entire treatment process is completed in just one visit.

Jaclyn Jensen and her skilled Crookston, MN dentistry team are happy to offer CEREC same day restorative dentistry services to expedite this process for our patients. However, traditional crowns and bridges can take two or more visits and one or more months for us to complete, which is not ideal. Traditional dental crowns and fixed bridges have offered patients predictable, effective smile repair and tooth replacement options for decades, and we still regularly use these restorative treatments at Renu Dental.
