Restore your smile in just one visit! At Pearl Dentistry, we believe restoring your smile should be precise, comfortable, and efficient. That’s why Dr. Spencer J. Lloyd uses advanced CEREC technology to design, create, and place a custom, permanent crown in a single appointment – meaning no temporary crowns and no follow-up visit.
With over 25 years of experience, Dr. Lloyd combines artistry, advanced technology, and compassionate care to ensure every crown looks natural and feels seamless.
What Is CEREC® Technology?
CEREC stands for Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics. It’s a state-of-the-art system that allows us to take digital impressions, design your restoration with computer-aided precision, and mill your crown right here in our office, all within a few hours.
This modern approach replaces messy impressions and multiple appointments with a streamlined, comfortable process that delivers lasting, lifelike results.
How the Same-Day Crown Process Works
Receiving your same-day crown with CEREC typically involves the following steps:
- Comfortable Preparation. Dr. Lloyd gently prepares your tooth and ensures your comfort every step of the way. For anxious patients, we offer oral conscious sedation or nitrous oxide, helping you stay relaxed throughout your visit.
- Digital Scanning. Instead of traditional impressions, we use a digital scanner to capture a precise 3D model of your tooth – quick, clean, and highly accurate.
- Custom Design & Milling. Using advanced CAD/CAM software, Dr. Lloyd designs your crown to perfectly match your natural tooth’s color, shape, and bite. Then, our in-office milling unit crafts your crown from a solid block of high-quality, durable ceramic.
- Placement & Polishing. Within a couple of hours, your new crown is ready to be bonded in place. You’ll leave the same day with a fully restored, beautiful smile – no temporaries, no waiting.
