An In-Depth Look at CEREC®
CEREC®, or Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics, is a cutting-edge dental technology that allows for the creation and placement of ceramic dental restorations in a single visit. This process, available to patients of all ages in Farmington, Kaysville, Layton, Ogden, Centerville, Woods Cross, and Salt Lake City, UT, uses computer-aided design and manufacturing (CAD/CAM) to produce high-quality, metal-free dental restorations.
The CEREC® procedure begins with a digital scan of your mouth, eliminating the need for messy impressions. The dentist then designs a custom restoration on a computer screen right in front of you. This digital design is sent to an in-office milling machine that carves your restoration out of a solid block of ceramic.
CEREC® offers several benefits, including convenience, precision, and superior aesthetics. Patients save time with this one-visit procedure, eliminating the need for temporary restorations or multiple office visits. The digital technology ensures a precise fit, while the ceramic material mimics the natural appearance of teeth.
For the communities of Farmington, Kaysville, Layton, Ogden, Centerville, Woods Cross, and Salt Lake City, UT, CEREC® represents a significant advancement in dental care. The technology caters to children, teenagers, and adults alike, offering a quick and comfortable solution for dental restorations.
