OTHER POINTS OF INTEREST

Only 10% of the dentists in the USA have
this advanced technology

They are the best restoration available in
dentistry today
Dentistry is different now.
It's more comfortable, patient friendly and time friendly.
Technological advances allow us to be more                     conservative.  
Restorations that used to be done in 2 visits can now be done in one
with the Cerec CAD-Cam.

We at Smiles by design have invested in this technology -  the best
technology the industry has to offer - to bring our patients a higher
quality of care.

CEREC restorations are made out of a block of pressed ceramic.  They
are a superior means of restoring a tooth.  This material is the closest
to natural human enamel available in the world today.  Because of this
it allows us to restore your tooth as closely as possible to its original
form.

BENEFITS

*  It is the most conservative means of restoring your tooth.  
It allows us to conserve more of your natural tooth structure
than traditional crowns.

*  It has the same thermo co-efficient of expansion as
human enamel.  Which means it does not expand and
contract like mercury fillings or composite fillings.  It is this
expansion and contraction that aids in cracking the tooth.

*  It has the same particle size as enamel uniformly through
the restoration.  This means it has the same wear and
hardness as human enamel and it won't wear the opposing
enamel
(teeth) like porcelain (which is a hard glass type material)
does.

*  CEREC's refractive index (the way light passes through the
material)
is the same as human enamel.  It blends well with
the surrounding enamel and looks very natural.

*  The ONE visit advantage.  No need for a 2nd visit, 2nd
anesthesia injection, no temporary crown to worry about.  
You leave with your permanent crown in place.
