Can a Same Day Crown Save Your Broken Tooth?
No one can predict when dental injuries will occur, but the outcome can be disastrous. A cracked or broken tooth can throw off your entire schedule! Fortunately, we can quickly and effectively repair tooth damage with same-day crowns. Drs. Ashish Papneja and Marjan Moaveni from Hyde Park Dentistry offer same-day CEREC restorations to our London, ON patients. If you’re unfamiliar with CEREC technology, no doubt you have questions about how it works. We provide the answers you need here.
What is CEREC dental technology?
CEREC is an acronym that stands for Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramic. Modern technology allows dentists to create same-day restorations within their dental facilities. In the case of damaged teeth, Drs. Papneja and Moaveni can fabricate CEREC crowns to repair broken teeth in one dental visit.
How do CEREC crowns differ from traditional crowns?
Traditional crowns come in different materials, including porcelain, zirconia, and metal fused to metal. CEREC crowns, on the other hand, are composed of porcelain. Advanced digital imaging and computer-aided design and manufacture (CAD/CAM) technology allow for creating CEREC crowns with increased accuracy and precision. However, the most significant distinction is the speed at which a crown is made. Traditional crown treatment takes weeks to complete as the restorations are created at an off-site lab. They are using CAD/CAM technology. Drs. Papneja and Moaveni can design, mill, and place a CEREC crown in one day. Restoration of the tooth is done instantly with CEREC crown treatment.

How can a CEREC crown be used?
CEREC crowns serve multiple purposes in dentistry. They can repair teeth in bad shape due to severe decay or damage. A CEREC crown will give your decayed or damaged tooth a stronger outer structure to keep it from crumbling. It will also restore your tooth’s function, as the crown will bear the brunt of biting and chewing. CEREC crowns can be used to replace teeth for dental implants or support fixed dental bridges. Cosmetically, CEREC crowns can cover stained, misshapen, or odd-sized teeth to improve your smile’s esthetics.
How long do CEREC crowns last?
CEREC crowns are strong and enduring. With proper care, your porcelain crown can last up to 15 years. You can extend the lifespan of your restoration by practicing good oral hygiene, getting routine cleanings, and avoiding biting down on hard substances or foods.
