Time is precious—especially when it comes to your dental care. At Designer Smiles in Fargo, Dr. Jeff Harrie is proud to offer CEREC dental crowns, an advanced restorative option that saves time without compromising quality. With CEREC technology, you can restore your smile with a durable, custom-made crown in just a single visit.
What Is CEREC?
CEREC stands for Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics. It’s a state-of-the-art dental technology that uses CAD/CAM (Computer-Aided Design and Computer-Aided Manufacturing) to create precision crowns in real time. That means no more waiting weeks for a lab to create your crown and no need for temporary restorations.
Traditional crowns typically require two appointments: one to take impressions and place a temporary crown, and another (after the lab creates the permanent crown) to place it. With CEREC, everything—from diagnosis to final placement—happens in one streamlined visit.
Key Benefits of CEREC Crowns
CEREC crowns are not just about saving time. They come with a variety of benefits that enhance your experience and results:
Same-Day Restoration: Walk in with a damaged tooth and walk out with a fully restored, natural-looking crown—all in a single visit.
Precise, Digital Fit: Digital impressions ensure that your crown fits snugly and looks natural, reducing the risk of discomfort or bite issues.
No Gooey Molds: CEREC uses a digital scanner, eliminating the need for traditional, messy dental impressions.
Durability and Strength: CEREC crowns are made from high-quality ceramic materials known for their strength, longevity, and natural appearance.
Minimally Invasive: With less prep work and faster results, CEREC can reduce the stress and inconvenience associated with traditional crown procedures.
How the CEREC Process Works
At your CEREC appointment with Dr. Harrie, here’s what to expect:
Digital Imaging: A 3D scanner captures detailed images of your tooth and surrounding area, providing a precise digital model.
Crown Design: Using CEREC software, we design a crown that’s custom-fit to your bite and matches the natural shape and color of your teeth.
On-Site Milling: Your crown is milled right in our office using a solid ceramic block. This step usually takes less than an hour.
Placement and Bonding: Once the crown is ready, it’s polished, adjusted if needed, and securely bonded to your tooth. You’ll leave our office with a fully restored smile—no follow-up needed.
