Most of the restorations placed in this office will be tooth-colored; we no longer use dental
amalgam. All restorations will be either resin, porcelain, gold, or porcelain on gold.
Now there is a revolutionary, more efficient restorative procedure called CEREC.
CEREC by Sirona Dental Systems is the world's only system for the fabrication of all ceramic
dental restorations in one office visit. With CEREC at your dentist's side, you can be in and out
in a single visit with a permanent, all ceramic crown, onlay, or veneer!
For you, the patient, this means fewer injections, less drilling, and less time out of your hectic
schedule for dental care. Most dental restorative methods require more than one visit to the dentist.
This means that on the first visit, you get an injection of anesthesia, your tooth prepared, an
impression taken,and a temporary restoration put on your tooth. You make a second appointment for
a couple of weeks later, get another injection, have the temporary pried off (if it hasn't fallen
off already), and have a permanent restoration put on. Why go to the dentist a second time when you
don't have to? With CEREC, the procedure is done in a single appointment, start to finish. A CEREC
tooth restoration isn't just convenient, it is also healthy. Many years ago,dentists had few options
to repair decayed and damaged teeth other than amalgam, gold, and other metals.

With CEREC, Dr. McCoy can use strong, tooth-colored ceramic materials to restore your teeth to their natural strength,
beauty, and function. These materials closely match the composition of natural tooth structure. This means
when you eat hot food and then drink something cold, the restoration and tooth expand and contract at almost
equal rates. So, your tooth does not crack, and you can go on enjoying your evening. Also, the materials are
chemically bonded to your tooth, so your dentist can save as much healthy tooth tissue as possible while
providing you with

a dental restoration that strengthens your tooth. Your dentist can use CEREC for more
than just crowns and fillings. CEREC is capable of producing any single tooth restoration. Chipped or
discolored front teeth can be repaired with beautiful CEREC porcelain anterior crowns or veneers. Your
smile makes a lasting first impression. Using metal free materials that are the closest to your natural
enamel, CEREC gives you the highest quality restorative care. Ask us today about single visit CEREC
