What Are Cerec Porcelain Fillings?
CEREC is a method of creating porcelain restorations anywhere in your mouth in one visit. Previously a technician was needed to make inlays, onlays or crowns and veneers off site thereby necessitating two patient visits .Now however only one easy appointment is necessary. If a crown is needed or a veneer, if an old filling needs to be replaced or a tooth is cracked; the tooth can be restored on the spot.
Mobile Dental Services dentists will work to ensure your smile is restored in a comforting, painless manner. Whether you require cerec porcelain fillings in Sydney clinics or the best dental implants or dental veneers can offer, Mobile Dental Services will come to you and deliver.
Cerec porcelain fillings
Firstly the tooth in question is prepared by the dentist; an infra-red photo is then taken of the tooth. The image is transferred to a computer where the restoration is designed. The information is then sent to a milling machine and the restoration is made from pre fabricated blocks of porcelain. Different shades are available and a glossing machine is on site to create a perfectly matching restoration.
Benefits of Cerec fillings
Aside from convenience, the benefits of CEREC’s are in the material used. The type of porcelain has been specifically designed to match the physical characteristics of the tooth. This allows the restoration to mimic tooth structure, even allowing it to expand and contract on heating and cooling at the same rate as the adjacent tooth structure. This minimises tensile and compressive stresses at the filling/tooth interface i.e. a less sensitive longer lasting filling- this coupled with the accuracy of the milling process(less than 5 micrometers) leads to a restoration that is pretty much the best current dentistry has to offer.
