Cerec is a technology that allows the creation and application of a crown in one dental visit. A crown is a man-made covering for a tooth to cap or completely cover the tooth. Using computers and a self-contained milling system, a crown is manufactured in the dentist’s office and applied, in one visit. A crown is often indicated for a decayed or damaged tooth where a filling or other restorative approach is not possible or does not offer the best long-term solution.

If you decide that a crown is necessary for your dental health, this is a great way to accomplish this: it is a one-time visit, there are no gummy impressions or a temporary cap.
After the procedure, your mouth will be numb for an hour or two, so you may want to avoid hot drinks so you don’t accidentally burn yourself.
