Using advanced digital scanning and in-house milling, we can design, create, and fit your restoration on the same day—eliminating the need for temporary crowns or multiple appointments.
CEREC provides a precise, strong, and natural-looking result.
What is CEREC?
CEREC (Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics) is a state-of-the-art digital system that allows us to design and create custom ceramic restorations during your appointment.
Instead of traditional impressions and waiting weeks for a lab-made crown, CEREC uses 3D imaging and computer-guided milling technology to produce a perfect, tooth-coloured restoration within hours. CEREC is ideal for:
- Damaged or fractured teeth
- Heavily filled teeth needing reinforcement
- Replacing old metal or worn crowns
- Improving shape, colour, or strength
- Patients who prefer a fast and convenient option
CEREC uses digital scans instead of messy impressions, the experience is comfortable, accurate, and efficient.
