SAME DAY DENTAL CROWNS

CEREC Dental Crowns in New York City

If you have a busy schedule, taking time off work for multiple appointments for a crown is a nuisance. Morningside Dental Care eliminates the need for all that scheduling. With same-day CEREC crowns, you can have your tooth restored in just a few hours. Our restorative dentistry services utilize CAD/CAM (computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing) technology. This allows us to create your customized ceramic crown right after we take impressions and prepare your tooth—a one-and-done appointment.

A Protective Covering for Damaged Teeth

Crowns are caps that fit over your natural teeth after they’ve been damaged. Conditions that might call for a crown are:

Chips or Fractures: Crowns can prevent bacteria from entering a crack, causing infection.
Decay: Similar to cracked teeth, teeth with cavities need to be protected from further damage.
Weakened Teeth: If you grind or clench your teeth, or have another condition that means your teeth aren’t as strong as they should be, a crown can be a preventative step.
Dental Bridges: Missing teeth can be covered with a dental bridge, which is held in place with crowns on the teeth bordering the gap.
Discoloration: If you have staining that can’t be lifted with teeth whitening, a crown can cover up the discoloration.

Futuristic Dental Care Available Now

CEREC stands for Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics. The entire process, from taking impressions to creating the crown, is done digitally right in our office. The crown is milled from a single block of ceramic material, resulting in a natural-looking restoration.

With traditional crowns, the process can take weeks until final placement. With CEREC, the entire process can be completed in just one visit to our restorative dentist. We make adjustments while you’re there, so you walk out of our Harlem dentist office with a perfectly polished, custom-fit crown.

The Difference of Ceramic

Same-day crowns are made from high-quality ceramic that’s resistant to chips and cracks. With proper care, they can last for many years, making them a cost-effective option for tooth restoration. By contrast, some traditional crowns are made from metal, which can chip or break over time and pose health risks. Ceramic doesn’t pose the same danger to your whole-body health, making it a safer choice on top of being more reliable.

More Conservative Treatment

With CEREC crowns, less of your natural tooth structure needs to be removed to accommodate the crown. This makes same-day crowns a more conservative treatment option. Morningside Dental Care’s holistic approach to dentistry emphasizes preserving as much of the natural tooth structure as possible. By doing that, CEREC crowns help maintain the strength and integrity of your tooth, reducing the risk of future complications.
