Need a dental crown without the wait? At Cosmetique Dental™, we offer advanced CEREC same-day crowns at our clinics in Sydney and Canberra. This technology allows us to design, create, and fit a high-quality ceramic restoration in a single appointment. It is the modern solution for restoring a damaged tooth with precision, convenience, and a natural-looking ceramic restoration, eliminating the need for temporary crowns and multiple visits.
CEREC (Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics) is a state-of-the-art dental technology that uses computer-aided design and manufacturing (CAD/CAM) to produce a custom-fitted crown during a single visit. The process begins with a digital 3D scan of your tooth, which replaces the need for traditional, messy impression trays. This digital model is then used to design your bespoke crown on a computer.
Once the design is finalised, the data is sent to an in-house milling unit at our Cosmetique Dental™ clinic. This machine precisely carves your new crown from a solid block of high-quality ceramic that is colour-matched to your teeth. The outcome is a durable, well-fitting restoration that can be bonded into place on the same day.
CEREC crowns are a practical option for patients who need a full-coverage restoration for a damaged tooth and prefer efficiency. This technology is ideal for those who value efficiency and wish to complete their treatment in one appointment. It provides a modern, streamlined experience without compromising on the quality or durability of the final crown.
This Treatment May Be Suitable For:
For patients across Sydney and Canberra, CEREC offers a modern and time-saving approach to dental restorations.
The CEREC same-day crown process condenses a traditionally multi-week procedure into a single, seamless appointment, all thanks to advanced digital workflow and in-house technology.
After determining that a crown is the best solution for your tooth, we prepare the tooth and take a quick, comfortable 3D digital scan. This creates a precise virtual model of your teeth.
Using the 3D model, your dentist designs your custom crown on the CEREC software. You can watch as we digitally shape the restoration, ensuring it will fit accurately and support a balanced bite.
Your approved design is sent wirelessly to our on-site milling machine. The unit then meticulously fabricates your crown from a block of tooth-coloured ceramic, a process that typically takes less than 20 minutes.
Once milled, your dentist will add custom stains and glazes to help the crown blend naturally with your surrounding teeth. It is then tried in for fit and finally bonded securely into place, completing your restoration.
CEREC crowns provide single-visit restorations, though some patients may notice temporary effects after placement.
Possible Risks:
Recovery and Aftercare:
Yes, CEREC crowns are known for their strength and durability. They are milled from a single block of high-quality, biocompatible ceramic material that is very similar in composition to traditional lab-made crowns. This monolithic structure makes them resistant to chipping and fractures from normal chewing forces.
With proper care and good oral hygiene, a CEREC crown can last for many years, often 10 to 15 or more, depending on oral care and lifestyle factors.. At Cosmetique Dental™, we use proven materials and precise digital technology to ensure your single-visit restoration is built to last, providing a reliable and long-term solution.
The most significant advantage is the convenience of completing the entire procedure in a single visit, which typically takes around two hours. This eliminates the need for a temporary crown, which can sometimes be uncomfortable or come loose, and saves you from having to schedule a second appointment for the final fitting.
Other key benefits include the precision of the digital scans, which many patients find more comfortable than traditional putty impressions. The computer-aided design and manufacturing process also ensures an accurate fit, which is important for the health of the underlying tooth and the durability of the crown.
The ceramic blocks used for CEREC crowns come in a wide variety of shades and translucencies, allowing us to select one that closely matches your natural teeth. The material has properties that mimic the appearance of natural tooth enamel, reflecting light in a similar way.
Furthermore, after the crown is milled, your dentist can apply custom stains and glazes to add subtle, life-like details before it is fired in a dental oven. This final artistic touch ensures that your new crown blends seamlessly with your smile, helping it blend with your other teeth.
