CEREC Crowns
One visit. One crown. All done.
You come in with a chipped tooth, or perhaps one that’s worn or fractured. In the past, that would have meant a temporary crown, several weeks of waiting, and a follow-up appointment to complete the work.
CEREC crowns change all of that. Using digital scanning and in-office milling technology, your dentist can design, craft, and place your crown within a single appointment. No messy impressions. No lab turnaround time. Just a streamlined, comfortable experience and a restoration built to last.


A strong, natural-looking crown-without the wait.
CEREC stands for Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics. What that means for you is simple: your dentist can scan your tooth, design a custom crown, and place it all in one visit.
The result is fewer appointments, fewer needles, and a restoration shaped to suit your bite and blend with your smile right from the start.
A CEREC crown may be the right choice if:
• You have a damaged or heavily filled tooth
• An existing crown has cracked or become loose
• You want to skip the temporary and the return visit
• You value convenience, accuracy, and quality materials
• You are looking for a lasting solution that looks natural
These are not compromise restorations. They are strong, modern crowns made with advanced tools and placed by dentists who know how to deliver excellent results.
The process feels more like scanning and shaping than “drilling.”
If you are used to messy impressions and multiple appointments, this process will feel like a welcome change. Your provider will guide you through every step and keep things comfortable throughout.
Here is how it typically works:
• A digital scanner creates a 3D image of your tooth
• Your dentist designs the crown on-screen while you wait
• The crown is milled from ceramic right in the office, often within the hour
• Your dentist checks the fit, makes any fine adjustments, and bonds it in place
• You leave with a fully restored tooth and no temporary required
The whole process takes place in a single visit, and most patients are pleasantly surprised by how quick and straightforward it is.


Your dental questions, answered.
Yes. CEREC crowns are milled from strong ceramic blocks and bonded firmly in place. They are made to withstand everyday chewing and hold up just as well as crowns made in a dental lab.
Absolutely. Your dentist will select the right shade and shape the crown to fit naturally alongside your existing teeth and complement your smile.
Most appointments last around two hours in total, covering the scan, design, milling, and placement. There is no need to come back for a second visit.
Many patients find CEREC more comfortable because it eliminates the need for messy impression material and a temporary crown, which can sometimes shift or feel awkward between appointments.
Same-day care. Long-term results.
When you need a crown, having it done properly and promptly can make a real difference. With CEREC, there is no waiting, no uncertainty, and no sacrifice in quality.
