Dental technology advancements have revolutionized how Dr. Liesen at Leisen Family Dental in Collinsville, Illinois, can provide efficient and convenient patient treatments. One such innovation is the CEREC Machine, which has transformed the process of getting dental crowns. This blog post will explore the incredible benefits of the CEREC Machine and how it creates same day crowns, eliminating the need for multiple appointments and lengthy waiting periods at Liesen Family Dental.
Understanding Same-Day Crowns
Traditional dental crown procedures typically involve multiple appointments, temporary crowns, and waiting weeks for the permanent crown to be fabricated in a dental lab. However, with the advent of the CEREC Machine, patients at Liesen Family Dental can now receive their permanent crowns in just one visit, thanks to the concept of same day crowns.
The CEREC Machine: A Game-Changer:
The CEREC Machine, short for Computer-Aided Rehabilitation and Education Center Machine, utilizes cutting-edge technology and state-of-the-art CAD/CAM (Computer-Aided Design/Computer-Aided Manufacturing) systems to streamline the entire process of fabricating dental crowns. This innovative equipment has revolutionized dentistry by providing same day crown solutions.
The Process Simplified
With the CEREC Machine, the process of obtaining same day crowns becomes straightforward and efficient. It involves three main steps:
Digital Scanning: Instead of using traditional impression materials, a digital scanner is used by Dr. Liesen to capture precise 3D images of the patient’s teeth. This eliminates the discomfort and mess associated with conventional impressions.
CAD Design: The captured digital scans are then imported into advanced CAD software, where Dr. Liesen designs the crown with great precision. The software allows for customization and ensures a perfect fit and aesthetic appearance.
CAM Milling: Once the crown design is finalized, the CAD data is sent to the CAM milling unit within the CEREC Machine. This unit uses high-quality ceramic materials to precisely mill the crown, ensuring optimal fit and durability.
Advantages of Same Day Crowns
The introduction of same day crowns through the utilization of the CEREC Machine offers several significant advantages for both Dr. Liesen and the patients at Liesen Family Dental:
Time-Saving: With same day crowns, patients no longer need to endure the inconvenience of multiple appointments and temporary crowns. They can receive their permanent crown in just one visit, saving valuable time and reducing disruption to their daily routines.
Enhanced Comfort: The digital scanning process eliminates the discomfort associated with traditional impressions, providing a more comfortable experience for patients.
Aesthetics and Functionality: Same day crowns created by the CEREC Machine are designed with meticulous precision, ensuring an excellent fit, natural appearance, and optimal functionality. Patients at Liesen Family Dental can enjoy the benefits of a restored smile without having to wait weeks for the final restoration.
Durability and Longevity: The materials used in the fabrication of same day crowns are of high quality, offering exceptional durability and longevity. Patients of Dr. Liesen can trust that their crowns will withstand the daily demands of chewing and speaking.
