CEREC: Single-Appointment Porcelain Restorations in Calgary
The days of porcelain restorations taking multiple appointments to create are over! When you need porcelain restorations in Calgary, Bite Dental Works is able to offer them the same day thanks to CEREC.
“The future is here. When I was a dental student, if you had told me that I could restore my patients’ teeth by scanning the tooth into a computer and bonding the restoration into place 30 minutes later, I would have thought you were crazy. Using an impression of the patient’s teeth, commercial dental laboratories use CAD/CAM (Computer Aided Design/Computer Aided Manufacture) technology to fabricate many of their crowns. When I use CEREC, we scan your teeth directly and design and manufacture the crown immediately. If you would like your teeth restored without impressions and uncomfortable temporary restorations in ONE appointment, then CEREC is for you!”
