Creating Ceramic Crowns with Cerec Tachnology Takes Just One Appointment

We are proud to offer CEREC crown technology at Stone Creek Family Dental. Using CEREC technology we can mill your crowns on-site, so you don't need to worry about cracking or losing a temporary

With CEREC Dr. Brown

will prepare the tooth like normal; however, instead of using dental putty to take an impression of the tooth, we simply take an image of the tooth with a specialized camera. This image is converted into a 3D computerized model of your tooth. We use this model as a guide to design the crown, and send that design to our on-site mill. The machine then fabricates your new tooth from a block of high-quality ceramic; the milling process can take anywhere from five to thirty minutes depending on the complexity of the tooth.

We utilize ceramic

in a variety of shades and colors selected to match your surrounding teeth. After your crown is milled Dr. Brown will characterize or stain it to match before the final polish or glaze is applied. Finally, your new crown is cemented into place on the prepared tooth surface.

We offer

many different options to restore your smile if you have missing, chipped, or cracked teeth. The structure of your tooth may be missing due to decay, deterioration of a previously placed restoration, or fracture of a tooth.  Depending on your situation, Dr. Brown will select the restoration option that makes the most sense and is affordable to you.
