Having added protection placed over a weakened tooth will make anyone feel a bit more confident and comfortable with their smile, but the added benefits provided by CEREC make it an even more reliable and popular option. Some of what you can expect when choosing CEREC include:

CEREC makes it possible to offer a more convenient way for patients to achieve dramatic results in less time. Once your dentist has cleaned and prepared your tooth by altering it in a way that will allow the crown to comfortably fit over your natural tooth, he will take digital impressions of your mouth. These images will be transferred to a computer with CAD/CAM software. This will allow Dr. Dhaliwal to set certain specifications for your custom-made prosthetic.

Once he is satisfied with the image, it will be sent to an in-house milling machine. A small piece of all-ceramic material will be placed within the unit and within one hour, you will have a custom-made dental restoration that looks and feels completely natural once it is securely in place.

At Complete Dental Care, we want to ensure our patients have the most comfortable, efficient care possible. Thats why Dr. Dhaliwal keeps up with the latest technological advancements in the field of dentistry and now offers CEREC same-day dental crowns in Kent. Before you go through with this treatment, though, you may be curious about some of the details. For that reason, weve included the answers to a handful of frequently asked questions about CEREC dental crowns below.

The acronym CEREC can actually stand for two things: Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics or, more simply, CEramic REConstruction. Both of these terms mean that we can create dental crowns and other restorations right here in our dental office without having to communicate with an outside dental lab, saving you valuable time.

Your dental insurance may mitigate the cost of your CEREC crown. Dental crowns are often considered a major restorative treatment, which most insurance providers cover at around 50%. Our dental practice can help you navigate the details of your coverage. If you need extra assistance funding your procedure, we can also help you sign up for a CareCredit payment plan. These plans break up the cost of your treatment into reasonable monthly installments with little to no interest.

Placing any type of dental crown requires the alteration of your tooth. In most cases, this involves removing a small section of enamel to create room for the restoration. Before this step in the process, your dentist in Kent will numb that section of your mouth to ensure you dont feel any discomfort. You may experience some minor soreness or sensitivity for a few days after having your crown placed, but this should only be temporary.

One might think that because CEREC crowns are made so quickly, that they are not as durable as traditional crowns. That is not actually the case. Both CEREC and traditional crowns normally last between 10 and 15 years. If you take good care of your crown, you may extend its lifespan even beyond that.

In general, dental crowns can be maintained in the same way you would maintain any other tooth. Brush and floss every day, and pay close attention to the area where your crown meets your gums to prevent plaque from building up there. Avoid chewing anything particularly hard or sticky, as it could break, loosen, or even dislodge the crown. Lastly, wear a protective nightguard if you have a habit of grinding your teeth while you sleep.

For most patients missing one or more teeth, dental implants are considered the ideal solution due to their numerous, revitalizing benefits, including stability, high cosmetic quality, and valuable oral health benefits. No additional teeth need to be altered to make room for the new restorations (like with bridges), and of dental implants from our Kent, WA dentist are so seamless and lifelike that many patients forget after a while that they ever lost their natural tooth to begin.

A single implant designed to replace one missing tooth can complete your smile once more in a way thats both conservative and completely satisfying in regard to look and feel. First, the patient will undergo a surgical process in which the implant itself is placed precisely within the jawbone. Then, after an appropriate amount of time has passed for the area to heal, an abutment (the base for your new tooth) is placed, followed by the restoration itself sometime later. Dental implants are an exceptional replacement option in that they help to rejuvenate the health of your jawbone, which can deteriorate over time from tooth loss.

An implant bridge makes it possible to replace more than one consecutive missing tooth in a row. Using two dental implants, which will be surgically placed into the jawbone, the restoration will be comprised of three or more dental crowns fused together. After the average healing time of 3-6 months, you will return to our dental office to have your abutments and custom restoration put into place.

If you are missing all your teeth, theres no need to worry that traditional dentures will be your only solution to a restored smile. Now, with implant-retained dentures, you can enjoy the stability, functionality, and longevity offered with dental implants. We will place between 4 and 6 implants along your arch before securing your customized denture in place. There will be no need for messy denture adhesives with this new and improved restoration.

Of course, sometimes our team discovers that a specific patient may not be a viable candidate for traditional implants, or that the spaces in their mouth are too narrow to adequately support them. When faced with these cases, we instead turn to mini implants. As the name implies, mini implants are about half the size of a regular implant, but they still provide the same valuable health and cosmetic benefits that patients can enjoy. In addition, theyre more versatile, less expensive, and they often eliminate the need for a recovery period, making them a faster tooth replacement overall.

Severe tooth loss can be a struggle, especially if you wear a denture and are generally unsatisfied with the fit and feel of it. Thankfully, we can now combine the structure of a denture with the sturdiness and durability of implants through the All-On-4 system. By utilizing four implants that are strategically placed at an angle along the arch of your gums, we can create a foundation for a full, personalized restoration that is fixed, resulting in a new feel for your smile that is much more comfortable and natural than ever before.

Do you have a denture that just wont stay in place? Does it shift every time you speak or take a bite of food? If so, our team can give you the stability you need by converting your traditional denture into an implant overdenture. This type of prosthetic is fitted over dental implant roots positioned within the jawbone. This gives the denture a much stronger foundation versus just sitting on the gums, plus it causes chewing forces to be redirected within the mouth so the prosthetic isnt constantly being pushed around. In addition to feeling more natural and comfortable, implant overdentures can help preserve a patients jawbone density, which in turn will enable the denture to keep its snug fit much longer than your regular removable one.

Compared to other forms of tooth replacement, dental implants are quite costly; however, their endless benefits and ability to offer what no other restorative solution can are what makes them one of the most popular solutions available today! When preparing to start your journey with dental implant placement, we will take the time to discuss what factors are considered when estimating the cost of your treatment.

Dentures are a removable set of teeth (either a full row or a partial set) that stay in place within the mouth with the help of natural suction or clips. Many patients find that they feel bulky or too loose; it can be difficult to get used to them. On the other hand, dental implants offer a permanent replacement, and they can be cared for in the same way you would natural teeth.

Dental implants offer several exceptional benefits to patients, including a lifelike look and feel, a permanent fit, no changes to your diet or oral health routine required, and a fairly straightforward and fairly inexpensive treatment procedure.
