Say goodbye to the discomfort and messiness of traditional impression-taking methods at Downtown Vienna Dental. With our state-of-the-art CEREC technology, gone are the days of biting down on trays filled with putty and worrying about the accuracy of your impression.
Instead, we use a small, handheld scanner to quickly and comfortably capture digital impressions of your teeth. These impressions are then utilized by our skilled dentists with CEREC software to create precise 3-D digital models of your teeth.
From these models, we meticulously design your new crown, guaranteeing a perfect fit and beautiful aesthetics without the hassle of traditional methods.
When opting for a CEREC crown, the process begins much like a traditional crown preparation. However, instead of messy paste impressions, we utilize a comfortable handheld scanner to capture precise digital impressions of your teeth. These impressions are then used to create a detailed 3-D model of your tooth within specialized software.
Using this digital model, we design your custom crown directly on the computer, eliminating the need for traditional mold-making processes. The design is then sent to our in-house milling machine, which crafts your new restoration from a block of ceramic. While the machine works its magic, you’re free to relax and enjoy your favorite music or TV show.
Similar to a 3-D printer, the milling machine sculpts your crown to exact specifications. Once complete, our dentists meticulously check its fit to ensure it blends seamlessly with your natural smile. After polishing, your new crown is cemented in place.
With your dental work completed, you’ll leave our office with a beautifully restored smile, ready to confidently face the world.
Although a CEREC crown may have a slightly higher initial cost compared to traditional lab-fabricated restorations, the benefit of completing the procedure in a single visit is often invaluable to our patients.
We understand the importance of financial considerations, and it’s worth mentioning that some dental insurance plans may cover a portion of the cost of your CEREC crown. We recommend contacting your provider to explore your coverage options.
For those seeking more flexible payment options, we offer convenient third-party financing through providers such as CareCredit. Contact us for more financing solutions to allow you to proceed with your crown treatment immediately and pay the remaining balance through manageable monthly installments.
