Everything You Need To Know About CEREC In Weston-Super-Mare

CEREC is a really impressive form of technology, which reduces treatment time for patients who require restorative treatment. If you need a crown, veneers or an inlay or onlay and you don’t have the time or patience to wait around, CEREC is the answer.

What is CEREC?

CEREC is an advanced form of technology, which enables dental practices to design and manufacture new restorations on-site; this means that we can carry out treatment in a single day, rather than having to wait for 2 weeks for a mould to be sent away to a dental laboratory, made into a new restoration and returned for fitting. With CEREC, it is possible to design, create and fit a bespoke restoration in a matter of minutes (rather than days) and this has many benefits for patients and dentists. CEREC uses images taken of the teeth and converts them into highly detailed 3D models, which act as a template for the new creation; these designs are then sent to the milling machine and seconds later, the new restoration is ready to fit.

What are the benefits of CEREC for patients in Weston-super-Mare?

The most obvious benefit of CEREC is that it cuts treatment time drastically. The fact that the entire process can take place in a single session also eliminates the need for temporary restorations and means that patients only have to find time to schedule one appointment, which can be a blessing for those with very hectic schedules. With CEREC, the treatment process is also much cleaner and more pleasant, as CEREC uses images, rather than putty moulds to create the new restoration. Many patients find the sensation of having dental putty in their mouth uncomfortable, so this can be a real benefit. CEREC also enables dentists to have more influence over the design of the new restoration and the manufacturing process is more accurate.

The teeth of Swindon get a makeover with CEREC

592142_blogIt is a great source of comfort to know that if you need to have things fitted or repaired in a jiffy in your mouth, the treatments are there for you. Crowns, veneers and bridges are some of those cosmetic beauties that help to restore the look and ambience in your mouth, and on general, they will only take a few weeks to fit them in, after your teeth have been prepared, moulds taken and the parts made-up. However, CEREC offers all of this in just over the hour, with the moulds being replaced by digital imaging, and this is what this treatment is all about, the brilliant use of modern technology. Once your teeth have been sized up by imaging, the results are programmed into a computer system that will then set about designing your new fitting. Once the dimensions have been set, they are fed into a machine and then manufactured on the spot. If there is an issue with the way they fit, it can be rectified there and then. Want to know more?

90 minutes of brilliance with CEREC in Bath

Computers have changed every aspect of life, from what you do personally to big business, and it is hard to see how we lived life before them. Dentistry has improved immensely because of the computer and the treatments that are now offered to you have become so refined; the perfect example of this is CEREC. If you need to have a bridge, a crown or some veneers fitted, the treatment would normally take around 2-3 weeks to complete, but with CEREC, you can be in and out in around 90 glorious minutes! It works like this: you pop along to the dentists who will first take a series of images through digital x-rays and then relay them to a computer with the CEREC programme. This then designs your new fitting and feeds this into a machine that will make the part you need. In the meantime, this allows the dentist to prepare you. When the part is ready, it will be fitted into place. The beauty of this is that if there is a problem with your new part, it can be rectified in-house, there and then. For more advice about CEREC, the costs and where you can go in Bath to get it done, then get in contact with the Clifton dental studio of Bristol, as they serve the whole of the area.
