Thanks to digital imaging, 3-D modelling and precision machinery we now offer patients in the Martin/Gosnells area same-day CEREC crowns. CEREC is short for ceramic restoration and allows you to have a new crown in just one visit. (It’s why they’re also called ‘fast-turnaround crowns’ or ‘one-visit crowns’.)
Everything happens on the day – in the one appointment at our dental clinic – so within hours, you can go home with your new crown.
Dental restorations can be used to fulfil a variety of purposes, such as:
Mills Road Dental is a QIP Approved Dental Clinic with highly experienced Australia-trained dentists Dr Aran Moorthy, Dr Ashley Foo and Dr Nick Goh.
Before 3-D technology, getting a new dental crown would take weeks. Today, all you need is one dental appointment on one day.
1. Preparation: The dentist will clean and prepare your original tooth (15-30 mins)
2. 3-D scan: Using CAD technology, you’ll have a 3-D scan of your teeth and mouth (15 mins)
3. Relax: While you relax in the waiting room, your new ceramic tooth will be milled in the CEREC machine (20 mins)
4. Adjustments: Your dentist will make some quick adjustments to your new crown on your natural tooth (5 mins)
5. Kiln: The crown is fired in a kiln (20 mins)
6. Attachment: Your dentist will permanently adhere your new crown to the base of your natural tooth (15 mins)
Both same-day porcelain crowns and lab-made porcelain crowns have their pros and cons. Deciding factors often involve budget (how much you are prepared to pay for a new tooth cap/crown) the position of the crown (if the crown required is on a front tooth, a laboratory made crown will usually give slightly superior aesthetic results).
A same-day crown, technically speaking, takes far less than a day, requiring only two hours to complete.
Same-day crowns have many benefits for patients. The process takes far little time and effort, costs less than normal crowns, is more environmentally friendly and due to the 3-D technology we use, provides you with an exact fit, and superior, long-lasting results.
CEREC is an acronym for Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics. (US spelling)
People need dental crowns for all sorts of reasons. Crown acts as a cap, completely covering the visible part of your tooth. A dental crown can be useful in many cases; for example if you have a cracked or badly damaged tooth, an unsightly tooth filled with fillings, a tooth left vulnerable after root canal therapy, a badly decayed tooth or as a replacement tooth if you have a dental implant.
We don’t like to promise that anything lasts forever, but with proper care, a same-day porcelain crown should last for at least 10-15 years.
Yes, ceramic crowns look natural looking, like one of your existing teeth. We’ll customise the appearance so that it mimics the colours and contours of your existing teeth, blending seamlessly with your smile. However, if you need a crown on a front tooth, a porcelain veneer may be recommended as porcelain does give more superior aesthetic results.
