Cerec Crown in Melbourne
Are you sick and tired of having a temporary crown that just keep falling off? Or you have to wait weeks and sometimes months until the final porcelain crown is finished? We all live a busy life and want things fast and want things now.
Visiting the dentist to get a crown done over a few appointments can be hard, and sometimes simply, impractical. Using cutting edge technology, we can now create beautiful and long lasting dental crowns in a single visit.
What is a CEREC Crown?
We can simply prepare the tooth, scan, and cement your porcelain crowns/onlays within 2-3 hours from start to finish. You don’t have to come back, you don’t have to get another dental injection, and you don’t have to worry about your temporary crown coming off and getting severe tooth sensitivity anymore.
CEREC can restore your tooth’s shape, function, strength and aesthetic in the most efficient way possible. However, there are still some cases where we want to send it to a lab for our dental ceramist to make your porcelain crown.
Your Same Day Crown Journey from start to finish
Preparing your tooth
At this visit you will be comfortably seated in our dental chair and choosing your favourite music or Netflix show to watch before beginning the procedure. This visit will usually take about 2 hours and we want you to have the best dental experience especially if you are anxious about visiting the dentist.
The first part of the visit our gentle dentist will be numbing the area, followed by the preparation of the tooth in readiness for the porcelain crown. Due to the nature of having the permanent crown cemented on the same day, we no longer need to make a temporary crown, which means our dentist can be conservative with the crown design and preserve more of your healthy tooth structure.

Creating your porcelain tooth
Then we will take a 3D digital scan of the tooth and our CEREC software will be able to create a porcelain tooth within minutes. You can now take a break, have a stretch, and even take a walk along our lovely brighton precinct whilst we plan, mill, and glaze your porcelain crown using our latest CEREC technology: PrimeScan, Prime Mill and Speedfire furnace. (60min)
Inserting your CEREC Crown
You will now return for your final crown to be inserted. At this point, you should still be numb so we don’t need to give you an additional anesthetic, which is always a bonus. The final cementation process should be quick and easy; making porcelain crowns have never been so convenient. (20min)
