Patients\nnow have a more convenient, attractive and durable way to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.renudentalcare.com\/cerec-one-visit-restorations.html\">restore<\/a>\ntheir smiles with a CEREC same-day dental crown.

A local dentist weighs in to provide the\nexpert answers you need so you can move forward with achieving a healthier and\nmore aesthetically-pleasing smile!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is a CEREC Same-Day Crown?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The CEREC (chairside economical restoration of esthetic\nceramics) method of dental crown placement utilizes the latest advanced design\n(CAD) and fabrication (CAM) software to create a beautiful and lasting\nrestoration in just one office visit. Not only does this form of restoration\nsave patients time, but it also provides more quality control by being a\ncompletely in-house procedure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Long Does It Take to Recover?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>After you receive a CEREC crown, it usually takes a few days\nto fully adjust to the new fixture. During this time, there may be some slight\ndiscomfort that can usually be managed well with an over-the-counter pain\nreliever like ibuprofen. You can also apply a topical anesthetic to sore gums. If,\nhowever, the pain intensifies, there is prolonged bleeding or the discomfort\ndoesn\u2019t subside after around a week, then you should bring it to your dentist\u2019s\nattention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tips for Caring for Your CEREC Crown<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The way you care for your CEREC crown will factor greatly\ninto how well and quickly you recover. Here are some tips to keep in mind to\nensure you have a healthy and attractive smile:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Stay away from sticky, chewy or brittle foods.<\/li><li>Avoid eating hard foods that could crack your\nrestoration or cause it to dislodge.<\/li><li>Attempt to chew food on the opposite side of the\nmouth during the healing process.<\/li><li>For the first few days, avoid flossing around\nthe newly placed crown.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, you may consider consuming soft foods like\nsmoothies, mashed potatoes or apple sauce, initially, after the placement of\nyour CEREC crown. Therefore, you can prevent any unwanted setbacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Lasting Restoration<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While the CEREC same-day crown is well known for its\nultra-convenience, it also provides a high-quality and lasting way to restore a\ndamaged, worn or missing tooth. With proper care, which should include brushing\nand flossing at least two times a day and visiting your dentist semi-annually\nfor cleanings and checkups, your CEREC crown can last up to a lifetime.
