Whenever you require a dental restoration such as a crown, veneer, inlay or onlay you usually have to wait several weeks for your personal restoration to arrive. After this you must return to the practice for a second set of injections to have your treatment.
However, at Liverpool Dental Implant and Aesthetic we use Cerec technology, which allows us to create high quality dental restorations in-practice. This cuts down the number of visits you need to make to the practice and also allows you to finalise the end results.
How does Cerec treatment work?
First you tooth is prepared for the inlay, onlay, crown or veneer, after which 3D images are taken of your teeth and mouth. These are a great deal more accurate than dental putty and also a lot less messy! The images are then fed into the computer, after which your personal restoration will be created from a pure block of ceramic.
It usually only takes 30 minutes to create a Cerec restoration, which is an awful lot faster than the usual 2 weeks it takes more most other practices! Once this has been created it will be fitted into place, after checking the colour and fit are perfect.
What are the main benefits of Cerec restorations?
- You will only require one visit, meaning you won’t have to take more time off work and you will only need to have one injection.
- You can oversee the work and ask for changes if you are not happy with the first restoration made. Correcting any problems will be easy, as all work is done on-site and will not have to be sent back to any outside laboratories.
- You will not have to wait for your brand new, beautiful smile, with all treatment completed on the same day.
