CEREC Technology: To create beautiful and natural looking crowns, veneers and bridges in one appointment, an intraoral scanner quickly and comfortably images the teeth and tissues. Once in the computer, the dental restoration is designed, customized and created right away to complete a colour-matched ceramic filling, crown, veneer or bridge – conveniently completed in one visit.
Crowns/Caps: When a tooth is heavily damaged, a full coverage restoration to support and protect the remaining tooth structure may be indicated. A small amount of space is created on the tooth to accommodate the thickness of the crown material.
Veneers: Veneers are thin, customized ceramic restorations that are bonded to the front of teeth. They are mostly used for aesthetic purposes to cover up a darkened tooth, restore the size of a tooth and/or fill gaps between teeth.
Bridges (Fixed Partial Denture): A bridge is used to replace one or more missing teeth between other existing teeth. The teeth on either side of the gap act as fixed anchorage for the bridge restoration. A bridge can be supported by natural teeth or implants.
