When it comes to restoring your smile, waiting weeks for crowns, veneers, or other dental restorations is no longer the only option. At our Encino dental office, we are proud to offer CEREC® Same-Day Restorations, a revolutionary solution that combines convenience, precision, and comfort—all in a single visit.

What Is CEREC®?

CEREC® stands for Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics. This advanced technology uses CAD/CAM (computer-aided design and manufacturing) to create high-quality, custom restorations such as:

• Crowns
• Veneers
• Inlays
• Onlays
  
  

Traditionally, getting a crown or veneer would require multiple appointments, messy impressions, and temporary restorations. With CEREC®, everything—from digital imaging to final placement—happens in just one visit.

How CEREC® Works

The CEREC® system includes a special intraoral scanner, design software, and an in-office milling unit. Here’s how the process works:

1. Digital Impressions

No more sticky, uncomfortable molds! We use a compact, hand-held scanner to create detailed 3D images of your teeth.

2. Custom Design

Using state-of-the-art software, we design your restoration right in the office. You can even view the design on the screen and see how it will look in your smile.

3. In-House Fabrication

Once the design is finalized, your restoration is milled from a solid block of ceramic that matches your natural tooth color. The process typically takes less than an hour.

4. Placement and Bonding

Your restoration is bonded to your tooth and polished—all within the same appointment. No temporary crowns, no return visits.

Benefits of CEREC® Same-Day Restorations

• Time-Saving: Complete your treatment in a single visit.
• Precision Fit: Digital impressions ensure accurate, custom restorations.
• Aesthetics: Tooth-colored ceramics mimic the look and feel of natural enamel.
• Comfort: No temporary or repeat injections.
• Durability: CEREC® restorations are strong and long-lasting.
  
  

Who Is a Candidate for CEREC®?

CEREC® is ideal for patients who need:

• A dental crown due to decay or damage
• Cosmetic veneers to improve tooth appearance
• Inlays or onlays as a conservative alternative to crowns
  
  

If you have healthy gums and adequate tooth structure, you may be a great candidate for CEREC® restorations.
