Did you know…

The Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramic (CEREC) is German technology first developed more than 30 years ago. Today, it is setting new standards in dentistry and is constantly evolving to adapt to the demands of dentists and their patients. When you choose a dentist who specializes in CEREC-assisted restorations, you are choosing a dentist who is dedicated to accuracy, efficiency, and durability.

The CEREC can help anyone who needs an inlay, onlay, crown, bridge, or veneers, and it only takes minutes to get accurate and detailed images of your teeth. The amount of time depends on the complexity of your restoration but in most cases, you will have your restoration on the same day.

Dr. Ostrovsky has been using CEREC’s CAD/CAM technology to virtually design restorations for the last five years, utilizing the latest version of the technology. Although the exact experiences vary from patient to patient, you can expect a crown produced using CEREC technology to last you many years so long as you have good oral hygiene and do not grind your teeth.
