Zirconia

Zirconia crowns are gaining popularity for their numerous benefits. Zirconia crowns are exceptionally durable and strong, making them the ideal choice for back teeth.

E-max

E-max crowns are rapidly becoming the top choice worldwide for front or visible teeth, and for good reason.

Metal-Infused Porcelain

Metal-infused porcelain crowns strike the perfect balance between traditional all-metal and all-porcelain crowns, combining the best qualities of both materials.

2- Porcelain/Ceramic

Porcelain or ceramic crowns are renowned for their superior durability compared to other types. They also deliver the most authentic and natural-looking results.

CEREC dental crowns refer to crowns that are created using the CEREC technology, which stands for Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics. This technology allows dentists to design, fabricate, and place ceramic crowns in a single dental visit, typically within a few hours.

Here’s how the CEREC process generally works:

Scanning: The dentist uses a specialized camera to take digital impressions of the prepared tooth and the surrounding teeth.
Designing: CAD (Computer-Aided Design) software is used to create a 3D model of the crown based on the digital impressions. The dentist can customize the shape, size, and fit of the crown to ensure it matches the patient’s natural teeth.
Milling: CAM (Computer-Aided Manufacturing) technology is then employed to mill the crown from a solid block of ceramic material right in the dental office. This step typically takes about 10-20 minutes.
Placement: After the crown is milled, it is polished and glazed to match the natural teeth’s appearance. The dentist then bonds the crown to the prepared tooth using dental cement.

What are CEREC dental crowns ?

CEREC dental crowns utilize cutting-edge technology to provide ceramic crowns in just one day. This advanced technique employs CAD (Computer-Aided Design) and CAM (Computer-Aided Manufacturing) for on-site production. By utilizing precise digital impressions of your mouth, CEREC ensures a perfect fit. Once your dental information is in the system, a personalized ceramic crown is created using a 3D printer. At Dentakay, this entire process takes only 15 minutes. Afterward, your dentist will cement the crown in another 15-20 minutes, completing the procedure in a single visit. It's important to note that if you have dental infections, treatment may need to be postponed until these issues are resolved. Ensuring a healthy mouth before proceeding with CEREC crowns is crucial for optimal results. Once your dental information is in the system, a personalized ceramic crown is created using a 3D printer.
