The procedure for placing CEREC same-day crowns at our dental practice in Vestavia Hills, Alabama, starts with a thorough examination of the patient’s oral cavity.
Using digital imaging systems, 3D images of the teeth are captured and converted into a 3D graphic model with CEREC 3D software, allowing Dr. Fulton to plan the treatment precisely. The CEREC same-day crowns are then fabricated in-house using a milling unit, designed to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth.
Once the crown is ready, Dr. Fulton ensures it fits perfectly, making any necessary adjustments before securing it with dental adhesives.
