Advantages of Choosing CEREC Same-Day Crown Treatment

Imagine how frustrating it can be to bite into hard candy or a popcorn kernel and break off part of your tooth! You can now repair a broken tooth quickly through CEREC same-day crown treatment through advances in modern dentistry. If you want to avoid delays in restoring the looks and function of a broken tooth, contact your CEREC same-day crown dentist, Dr. Kurt Knechtel of Longmont Dental, to schedule an appointment for CEREC crown treatment.

Advantages of Same Day Dental Crowns

Dental crowns are usually the go-to treatment for repairing chipped, cracked, or broken teeth. Crowns are special caps that cover damaged teeth to protect them from further breakage. Traditional porcelain crown treatment can take up to two weeks to complete. In contrast, Dr. Knechtel can have your CEREC crown ready on the same day you come in, so there’s no waiting period for restoring your smile. Additional advantages include:

• The use of advanced digital technology to design a crown that looks natural, fits perfectly, and provides optimal performance
• No need for a temporary crown to protect your tooth as your crown is fabricated during your initial dental visit
• Durable ceramic composition that can withstand the pressure of biting, chewing, and grinding to give you long-lasting use
• CEREC crowns can be customized to closely resemble your natural teeth so that your capped teeth blend in with your smile beautifully. CEREC crowns also conceal all damage to your teeth, along with stains and imperfections, to improve their appearance.

Common Uses of Dental Crowns

Dr. Knechtel may recommend a dental crown for numerous reasons, such as:

• Repair and strengthen weak or broken teeth to restore their usefulness
• Support a tooth that has received a large filling
• Cover tooth damage or imperfections or correct misshapen teeth to enhance their appearance
• Protect teeth that have undergone root canal treatment
• Act as a replacement tooth for a dental implant
• Support a dental bridge
