What Are Same-Day Crowns?

Gone are the days of multiple appointments, temporary crowns, and weeks of waiting. CEREC technology allows Dr. Wachholtz to create and place a beautiful, custom-made crown for your tooth in just one visit. CEREC stands for Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics—an innovative system that creates dental crowns directly in our dental office using 3D imaging technology and an in-office milling machine. The crowns are high quality and made of porcelain or composite resin. Unlike traditional crowns, CEREC same-day crowns are made on-site and can be fitted the same day.

How Does CEREC Work?

After an exam and consultation at Northwest Dental in Omaha, NE, tooth restoration can be quickly done using CEREC. In addition to creating a beautiful smile, the crown provides much-needed support in everyday activities like eating, chewing, and speaking. Getting a new crown or a crown replacement is easy:

Step 1

  • The tooth or multiple teeth are prepared, and we take a digital 3D scan.

Step 2

  • Our CEREC Sirona milling machine receives the scan and creates a unique crown for you (customized in size, shape, and color).
