Why Choose CEREC Crowns?

April 26, 2014

In this modern age, most patients want immediate treatment for their damaged teeth. Dr. Doug Forbes of Total Dental Care of South Carolina understands that busy people like you can’t spend long hours in the clinic. He offers one-day crowns to those who need an instant smile makeover. Most people opt for this kind of treatment because of the following reasons.

Effective Treatment

CEREC (CEramic REConstruction) uses a CAD/CAM technology (computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing) that produces crowns in just single day. Multiple visits are squeezed into one. This saves time and frees up your schedule. Using this equipment, your South Carolina dentist prepares your teeth, designs your crowns, fabricates your caps, and places your “new teeth” in just a single appointment. No need to travel back and forth to the clinic. Visit the office in the morning and leave afterwards with your gorgeous smile.

Convenient and Comfortable

Experience convenient and comfortable treatment with the help of CEREC technology. The equipment has a digital camera that takes optical impressions of your teeth, 3D CAD software that designs your crowns, and a milling unit that fabricates your restorations on the spot while you wait. It eliminates the use of traditional impression materials that are messy and distasteful. You don’t need to wear temporary crowns that can cause sensitivity.

Impressive Results

CEREC crowns fit better, look natural, and can last for many years with proper care. They are made from porcelain and are free from mercury and other toxic materials.

Easy to Maintain

Just keep up with you daily oral hygiene, visit your Columbia SC dentist regularly, and avoid bad habits that can damage your crowns.
