Single-Visit Tooth Restorations

At most dental practices, patients who are having a tooth restored must make at least two trips to the office, and the process takes about 2-3 weeks. We are one of a very few offices in this area using CEREC Primescan, a highly advanced CAD/CAM system that allows us to create natural-looking, premium quality porcelain crowns, veneers, and overlays in under 15 minutes. This system uses special biocompatible materials that make your restored teeth metal-free and plaque-resistant. In many cases it also allows us to preserve more of the original tooth.

 

Optimal Results with Less Discomfort

CEREC Primescan uses a high-definition scanner that eliminates the need for you to endure uncomfortable silicone impressions. This scanner allows us to make ultra-precise restorations, which helps ensure long-lasting, natural looking results.

 

Outstanding Results / Less Time in the Chair

By using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) and 360 imaging implant planning software, we are able to virtually place and plan dental implants in advance of your procedure. The powerful software allows for more accurate diagnoses, and thus better treatment planning. We use this system to fabricate exact-fitting surgical stents that facilitate perfect implant depth and angulation, so your implants are natural-looking, fully functional, and durable. These stents also make implant placement more efficient, and minimize discomfort.

Enhanced Precision and Safety with CBCT

We use Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) – an advanced 3D Imaging technology – to deliver precision that can’t be achieved through the use of traditional x-rays alone.  It helps eliminate uncertainties that can result when using 2D x-rays alone to diagnose dental and TMJ issues.

CBCT also allows us to fabricate surgical guides and place implants more precisely, thus avoiding adjacent teeth, nerves, and other sensitive structures.  For patients this helps ensure safer treatments, less discomfort, and better outcomes.
