Whether it’s needed due to decay or an injury, having a crown placed is a common staple of dental care that countless patients have experienced over the years. However, the process can be a major inconvenience, especially if you have a tight schedule – one appointment for preparation and the placement of clunky temporary crown, and then a second appointment for the permanent crown to be placed. In the meantime, your temporary crown might even break or come loose, resulting in another impromptu trip to your local dental office.  Dr. Bobby Carmen and his staff in Norman, OK have experienced first-hand how vexing and inconvenient this process can be – that’s why they provide CEREC crowns for damaged smiles of all shapes and sizes!

How does CEREC work?

The process is simple! After taking a detailed, 3D image of your tooth, the CEREC machine goes to work on creating a beautiful, custom-made restoration for you. Better yet, the process only takes a single hour – no inconvenience or temporary pieces required! Dr. Carmen will then permanently place the new crown for you once it’s completed and ensure that you’re happy with it before you leave our office with a fuller, healthier smile.

Our CEREC machine can also create inlays, onlays, and veneers, allowing us to quickly and thoroughly provide you with the perfect restorative solution to your dental woes.
