CEREC Same-Day Crowns in Carthage, TN
What Are CEREC Same-Day Crowns?
CEREC (Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics) technology allows us to create and place custom ceramic dental crowns in just one visit. At Bailey Family Dentistry, we utilize digital 3D imaging and in-office milling to deliver long-lasting, precise restorations—without the need for temporary crowns or multiple appointments.
If you're looking for an efficient and modern way to restore your smile in Carthage, TN, CEREC crowns offer a reliable and comfortable alternative to traditional dental crown procedures.
Benefits of CEREC Technology
Patients across Carthage and surrounding areas choose same-day crowns for their convenience and quality. Benefits include:
- Single Visit Completion: The crown is designed, crafted, and placed in just one appointment.
- No Temporaries Needed: Skip the discomfort and inconvenience of temporary crowns.
- Digital Accuracy: Impressions are captured using iTero digital scanning, improving precision and comfort.
- Natural Look and Feel: CEREC crowns are crafted from ceramic that matches your natural teeth.
- Durability: These restorations are built to withstand daily wear for years.
How the Same-Day Crown Process Works
Your crown journey begins with a high-definition scan of your tooth. Using advanced CAD/CAM software, we design a crown that matches the shape and color of your surrounding teeth. Our in-house milling unit then carves your crown from a solid block of ceramic, and within hours, it's ready for placement.
For patients needing more involved procedures, CEREC crowns can be used in conjunction with treatments like root canals or dental implant restorations, offering a cohesive restorative plan.
Is CEREC Right for You?
CEREC crowns are a great fit for patients who:
- Have a cracked, chipped, or fractured tooth
- Need to replace a large filling
- Want to restore a damaged tooth without delay
- Prefer same-day treatment over multiple dental visits
If you're not a candidate for CEREC, we also offer other restorative solutions like dental bridges and traditional crowns, ensuring we meet your specific dental needs.
Advanced Technology That Supports Same-Day Restorations
Dr. Christopher Bailey and our experienced team integrate multiple technologies to enhance patient care. From iTero scanning to CEREC fabrication, and even intraoral cameras, every step of the process is optimized for speed and precision.
For patients needing additional prep, such as bone grafting before a crown-supported dental implant, we can coordinate your care seamlessly right here in our Carthage office.
