Yes, same-day CEREC crowns are as strong as traditional crowns. Patients often ask this because same-day care is new.
We are here to calm your nerves and reassure you that same-day CEREC crowns are just as strong and durable as traditional crowns. Here are three reasons why.
3 Reasons Same-Day Crowns Are A Strong Option
- Impressions— Advanced digital impressions with an intraoral scanner help create a comfortable, precise, and accurate fit for your crowns. This makes the first step in the process even more promising.
- Temporary Crowns— There is no need for the hassle of a temporary crown with the CEREC process. Traditionally, you would need a temporary crown while your real one is being made, creating pain and discomfort for possibly weeks before your final restoration is done. With same-day crowns, there is no need for a temporary crown, as we provide you with a strong, accurate-fitting crown the same day.
- Advanced Technology—With CEREC, made in the office using digital designs and precision milling, we can see the process right here. Traditional crowns rely heavily on out-of-office labs to create the correct fit. Same-day crowns use advanced materials designed to withstand everyday chewing forces while maintaining their natural appearance, and they can last 10-15 years without another restoration.
All that said, same-day crowns are extremely durable and strong, so there is no need to worry. This science has been heavily studied and crafted just for you. You do have to take into account the aftercare process, such as your own oral health, like brushing and flossing, but with our help and the steps we give you on how to care for your crown, we know this will be a great fit for you.
