“Is CEREC® right for me?” Dr. Perry explains
October 15th, 2013
CEREC, an acronym Dr. Chelsea Perry and our team at Elite Dental Care of Westborough use, stands for Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics. This state-of-the-art treatment restores damaged teeth in a single appointment!
The procedure involves meeting with Dr. Perry to discuss what to expect with your individual treatment. Once you are in the dental chair, Dr. Perry digitally scans the area in your mouth that needs restorative work and creates a replacement using three-dimensional computer imagery and a milling machine. All of this happens just one appointment and eliminates the need for a temporary crown, the need to have your teeth numbed before the placing of the crown, and eliminates the need to return for a follow-up visit, giving you more time to enjoy your life.
There are many advantages of CEREC treatment over traditional crown technology. They include:
- The convenience of a single visit and less time spent in the chair
- Higher crown-placing accuracy
- Extremely precise and long-lasting, tooth-colored and natural-looking results
- Biocompatible, metal-free, anti-abrasive, and plaque-resistant ceramic materials
- Preserves more healthy tooth material
To learn more about CEREC technology or to schedule an appointment at our convenient Westborough, MA office, we invite you to give us a call today! Dr. Perry and our team look forward to working with you!
