CEREC
Single Appointment Crown!
CEREC is the most advanced dental restorative system available today. For procedures traditionally requiring an impression of your tooth, a temporary crown or bridge, and a second visit weeks later, for placement, CEREC streamlines the process…dramatically.
In ONE visit, 3D digital images of your teeth appear on the screen and Dr. Jocelyn Iverson and her team design a customized ceramic crown with this innovative software. The images produce a crafted porcelain restoration which is then milled right in the office. Bonded into place at that same appointment, your tooth appears and functions just as nature intended.
