After a consultation, deep cleaning and crown appointment were scheduled. Both are now completed. WOW, besides the amazing office space and great staff, Emily the hygienist and Dr. Natalya Jones make the experience about as good as it can be. I appreciate you so much for taking care of me and my pearly whites."

- Need protection after a root canal
- Have a large dental filling that’s failing
- Want a tooth restored quickly with minimal visits

Our dentists in Reno will evaluate your situation and determine if CEREC is right for you. To be sure that you’re a good candidate for CEREC, don’t hesitate to contact our Reno dental office today by calling (775) 686-6029. 

The CEREC Crowns Process at WestSide Dental Studio

If you're considering a CEREC crown in Reno, you're probably wondering what the process actually looks like. It’s streamlined, simple, and designed to fit your busy schedule.

Digital Examination and Scanning: Your appointment begins with a thorough exam. Dr. Dean or Dr. Jones will assess your tooth and surrounding structures to make sure a crown is the best solution. Then, instead of messy impressions, your tooth is scanned using a digital 3D camera. This quick and comfortable step creates a precise digital model of your tooth.

Custom Crown Design: Using advanced CAD/CAM (computer-aided design and manufacturing) software, our dentists will design a crown tailored to your unique bite and anatomy. This ensures a secure fit and natural appearance. You can even watch the design process on the screen—it’s like watching art in action!

In-Office Milling: Once the design is finalized, the data is sent to the in-office milling machine. In just about 15 to 30 minutes, your crown is carved from a solid block of high-quality ceramic. This material is chosen to match the color and strength of your natural teeth.

Fitting and Final Touches: Dr. Dean or Dr. Jones will try the crown on to ensure it fits perfectly and looks great. Any necessary adjustments are made right then and there. If everything checks out, the crown is polished, and you're ready for the final step.

Bonding the Crown: Your new crown is securely bonded to your prepared tooth using a strong dental adhesive. Within minutes, it’s set—and your smile is restored. No temporary crown, no second visit, and no long waiting period.

Maintaining CEREC Crowns

Your new crown is ready to go as soon as you walk out the door, but aftercare is essential to keep the crown in top shape:

- Avoid sticky or hard foods for the first 24 hours.
- Brush and floss daily, just like you would with natural teeth.
- Schedule routine checkups so your dentist can ensure the crown remains in great condition.

With proper care, your CEREC crown can last up to 15 years or longer! To learn more about how to properly maintain your same-day crown, contact our Reno dental office by calling (775) 686-6029.

How To Care For Your Dental Crown

At-Home Oral Hygiene

For the most part, you can treat your new crown just like a natural tooth. So make sure you brush twice a day for two minutes using fluoride toothpaste, and floss once per day to protect your teeth.

Dietary Changes

You may want to avoid very sticky and gummy foods like taffy, gummy candy, toffee, and caramel. Over time, these foods can loosen the crown. They also tend to be very sugary, which is not good for your overall oral health.
