SINGLE VISIT PORCELAIN FILLINGS (CEREC)

Porcelain restorations can help strengthen the teeth and reduce the risk of cracking. Traditionally these restorations would be constructed at an external laboratory and require two appointments to complete.

However now with advances in dental technology we have made same-day dentistry a reality with CEREC. Using the CEREC method an impression of your tooth is taken digitally with a 3D camera and your porcelain filling is designed on the spot in a single visit. The designed filling is then constructed in porcelain and cemented.

The CEREC method eliminates the need for a temporary filling between visits and the need for multiple local anaesthetics. The fillings are strong, long lasting and highly aesthetic.
