CEREC Dental Crowns for Melbourne Residents

A young woman smiling and preparing to eat an apple with her fully restored smile thanks to CEREC dental crowns In the past, if you needed a cosmetic dental restoration (crown, veneer, inlay, or onlay), you had to wait weeks for it to arrive from the dental lab. If the lab technician somehow misread the doctor’s instructions, then you would have to wait several more weeks for your final restoration to arrive again. Now, with CEREC 3D technology, Dr. Chenet and our team can create custom dental crowns in Melbourne, veneers, inlays, and onlays right in our Melbourne, FL dental office, in about an hour. CEREC cuts out the middleman and allows the dentist to custom design a restoration that’s perfect for you.

How Does CEREC Work?

This advanced technology designs a restoration that fits precisely and matches with your surrounding tooth color.

Once Dr. Chenet is satisfied with the result on the screen, he will send it to our in-house milling unit. Made from solid blocks of ceramic, the CEREC restorations are extremely durable and aesthetic pleasing. It only takes about an hour to receive your new dental crown, as Dr. Chenet will cement it into place once it is ready.

Over 25 years of research has gone into CEREC technology, and millions of patients have repaired their smiles with CEREC restorations.

Cost of CEREC Dental Crowns

The average cost of your CEREC dental crown is dependent upon your treatment plan. Every patient is different, so even if your family member paid a certain amount for their crown, it is highly unlikely that you will pay the same.

During your initial consultation with Dr. Chenet, you will receive a customized estimate that will include all factors that are considered for this type of treatment. At this time, you will also learn about available payment options and whether using your dental insurance will be possible.

If necessary, you can talk to a member of our staff who will be happy to work on your behalf, corresponding with your insurer to determine if your CEREC crown is covered and how much you can expect to pay out of pocket. Even if the remaining balance is too much, we can work with you to determine additional ways you can move forward with treatment without breaking the bank.
