CEREC® Same-Day Dental Crowns
in Forest Hills, NY

A crown protects a damaged, cracked, or broken tooth by helping restore its natural size and shape. CEREC® (Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics, or Ceramic Reconstruction) Same-Day Crowns allow our doctors to plan, produce, and insert an individual ceramic crown during your first (and only) appointment, using a digital impression. Indeed, CEREC® allows you to be in and out of our office in one visit, with a new, permanent, all-ceramic crown and restored smile.

When Do You Need A Dental Crown?

You may need a crown for the following reasons:

• To protect a root canal
• To repair a tooth damaged by tooth decay, fractured, or worn
• To cover a filling or dental implant
• To hold a dental bridge
• To restore a misshapen or discolored tooth

How long does it take to fit a dental crown?

Our office uses cutting-edge technology to deliver crowns on the same day in a single visit. Traditionally crowns take two visits to the office and patients have to wear a temporary crown in between these appointments. With CEREC 3-d scanning, we are able to design and make your custom crown in just one day.

Benefits of Same-Day Dental Crowns with CEREC

Quick – Receiving a new crown in just one visit is not an exaggeration. In one appointment, we take a digital impression of your tooth and send it to our in-office CEREC® machine and our milling machine. Once your replacement crown is complete, we fit it on your tooth, make any necessary adjustments, and send you back out into the world with a restored smile.

Convenient – CEREC® crowns require a fraction of the time it takes to get a traditional crown. You don’t have to wait days or weeks for your crown to be made which means no multiple-visit scheduling.

Proven – The CEREC® single visit approach has been used to perform more than eight million restorations worldwide over the past two decades, including massive clinical research and success. Our doctors use premium ceramic material to match the natural color of your teeth as they implement the advanced CAD/CAM (Computer Aided Design/Computer Aided Manufacturing) system: a camera, computer and milling machine.

Accurate – We use a specialized camera to take precise impressions of your tooth which we transfer and display on a color computer monitor where we apply CAD tech to design the restoration. We use CAM to automatically create a flawless restoration for your tooth.

Comfortable – Since the CEREC® approach is done in one visit, there is only one numbing process and one placement process. This requires fewer injections than the placement of traditional crowns.

Solid – The speed of the CEREC® method does not diminish the quality of the crowns. In fact, CEREC® crowns are made of an advanced ceramic composite that contains alumina – its variants being sapphire and ruby – which rank just under diamonds on the durability scale. We soften alumina by blending it with other ingredients, giving it a translucency that looks like your natural enamel. Meanwhile, its durability lasts a lifetime yet isn’t so hard that it wears away your natural adjacent teeth.

Fast, easy, and long-lasting, CEREC® Same-Day Dental Crowns flip the script when it comes to saving smiles and restoring teeth. We guarantee a comfortable fit and natural look as we tailor your crown in just one day.
