Do you have any teeth that are cracked, damaged, or chipped and are causing you to chew differently or look unsightly? You might even have noticed that you are speaking differently because you have issues with certain teeth. There are many ways to correct these issues, but a spectacular one is CEREC same-day porcelain crowns. CEREC dental crowns utilize CAD/CAM technology to create high quality porcelain crowns quicky and efficiently.
CEREC stands for Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics, or CEramic REConstruction. What that means is, that you can get a crown in one dental visit to our dental office! It’s amazing dental technology that can save you time and give you a healthy, beautiful smile faster than ever before!
Traditionally, getting a dental crown meant at least 2 visits to the office. One to prep and make the mold of the teeth which we would send to the lab who would fabricate the crown. Once the crown was made, then you would come back in for your 2nd visit. Meanwhile, you were wearing a plastic temporary crown this whole time, and might be again if the lab fabricated crown didn’t fit right. This was a very time consuming process with a lot of appointments.
CEREC same day porcelain crowns only take one visit. The entire process is different from our traditional crown. Here, we use our incredible technology to scan then create the crown right here at the office! The information is sent to the CEREC same day crown machine (the mill) which sculpts the crown while you wait. The entire process is precise, efficient and proven to be effective. Once the crown is finished being sculpted, glazed and polished, your tooth is prepared to be bonded with the crown. These crowns are as long lasting and durable as lab fabricated porcelain crowns, but they take so much less time! You are back to work or with your family in just a couple hours!

I started a series of deep cleaning appointments today and I was pleasantly surprised at how well it went.

Hays JunkinMarch 13, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been a patient at Bow Family Dentistry since 1987. Dr. Cronhardt's dedication to skill and care have kept me healthy for many years. I am now continuing with this practice and find that the care and quality continue with a new team. I am now a patient of Dr. Rucinski. I could not be more grateful for her skill and care. I needed two new crowns and "with same day crowns" found the experience very easy. Dr. Rucinski is trained in the latest tools of dentistry and it is a marvel to me. Much appreciated. Eric PortalupiMarch 11, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
