In the old days of dentistry, it would take several weeks to design, manufacture, and fit someone with custom dental crowns, but those days are no more! Now, with the advent of CEREC® crowns, your dentist can do everything in an hour or two, right in the office. AA Windward Dental Group is proud to offer this revolutionary new technology at their Kaneohe, HI, practice. Here’s how CEREC crowns save you considerable time, energy, and discomfort:

• In-House Milling Unit: Computer-assisted design (CAD) and manufacturing (CAM) are used across numerous industries, and lauded for their incredible accuracy. They greatly simplify dental restoration work—but not at the expense of quality.

• Long-Lasting Dental Crowns: CEREC crowns actually last longer than conventionally manufactured crowns, with many lasting for over a decade!

• Clean Optical Impressions: The impressioning process for conventional crowns is notoriously messy; requiring the patient to bite down on a foul-tasting material. Not so with the CEREC process—instead of requiring a physical impression, it converts digital images into a 3-D virtual model.

• No Need For Temporary Crowns: In the past, you would need to wear temporary dental crowns for a few weeks while waiting for your real ones to arrive—and if there were any problems with them, you’d have to wait even longer for the “do-overs.” But with CEREC, you’ll only go home with your final dental crowns.

• Less Injections & Discomfort: Since the entire CEREC process takes place in just one convenient dental visit—including the initial exam, optical impressioning, milling, and final fitting and bonding—you can look forward to less dental pain.
