Many years ago, dentists had few options to repair decayed and damaged teeth other than amalgam, gold and other metals. However with CEREC, your dentist can use strong, tooth-colored ceramic materials to restore your teeth to their natural strength, beauty and function. These materials closely match the composition of the natural tooth structure. CEREC can be used for more than just crowns and fillings. CEREC is capable of producing any tooth restoration. Chipped and discolored front teeth can be repaired with natural looking CEREC porcelain anterior crowns or veneers. And because you only need one visit, CEREC can save you time and money too.
