CEREC Same-Day Dental crowns
Teeth that are chipped, cracked, or damaged can result in various dental issues, including pain or decay. Seeking emergency dental care as soon as these problems arise can significantly increase the chances of restoring your smile’s natural structure. At Khanani Family Dental, we use the advanced CEREC machine to repair and restore our Hubbardston patients' smiles with same-day dental services.
What is CEREC?
CEREC, or Ceramic Reconstruction, is an advanced dental technology that enables our dentists to create same-day restorations from a single block of ceramic using CAD/CAM (computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing) technology. This method removes the need for extra appointments and temporary prosthetics, offering a long-lasting, all-in-one solution for many common dental concerns.
Process of CEREC
Receiving a same-day restoration with our CEREC machine is a simple and efficient process. Instead of using traditional impression putty, Dr. Khanani uses a digital scan to capture a precise image of your unique dental situation. These digital impressions allow for accurate analysis and offer a more comfortable and faster experience for patients compared to other methods.
Based on these detailed models, our CEREC machine creates a custom restoration designed to match your natural teeth. Made from a single block of material, the restoration is strong and durable. We offer a range of materials, including porcelain, E.Max, and zirconia, to suit the specific needs of our patients.
Once the restoration is ready, Dr. Khanani places it and makes adjustments to ensure the color blends seamlessly with the surrounding teeth and that the fit is comfortable.
