Frequently Asked Questions

Are CEREC® same-day crowns as durable as traditional crowns?

Thanks to revolutionary CEREC® (Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics) technology, if you’re in need of a dental restoration, you can now have a crown custom-designed, crafted (via a specialized 3D printer), and placed in a single visit to your dentist! It’s a genuine game-changer.

As incredible an innovation as same-day crowns are, they still beg one vital question: Are CEREC crowns strong enough to last long term?

CEREC Crown Longevity: What to Expect

Dental crowns in Wilbraham, MA typically last from 10 to 15 years, with some (typically metal) lasting up to 20 years with diligent care. While CEREC same-day crowns don’t have the same lengthy track record as their traditional counterparts, the results we do have thus far suggests they look, feel, function, and hold up similarly with proper maintenance and care.

Other Factors Affecting Dental Crown Lifespan

Of course, dental crown longevity depends on a number of factors beyond where the crown is crafted. These factors include:

At-home oral hygiene habits
Diet
Smoking/smokeless tobacco use
Fingernailing biting and a person using their teeth as tools
Accidentally biting down on hard objects like olive pits and unpopped popcorn kernels
Chronic teeth grinding (bruxism)

Why Choose CEREC Over Traditional Crowns?

While traditional crowns are highly reliable, the process for getting them requires multiple appointments and often involves the placement of a temporary crown. This means extra time off work or school, potential sensitivity, and the inconvenience of a return trip. CEREC eliminates all of that inconvenience.

Additionally, with digital scans, in-office design, and same-day placement, you’ll leave with a fully functional, beautifully matched crown in just one visit, eliminating the need for messy impressions, a temporary crown, or weeks of waiting for a lab to deliver your final restoration. Everything is done chairside in a single appointment!
