At Goehring Dental in South Austin we offer same-day CEREC® crowns. This means that we can restore your smile in a single dental visit.

What Is CEREC®?

Cerec stands for Chairside Economical Restorations of Esthetic Ceramic or CEREC for short is a new state-of-the-art method of reconstructing tooth restorations.

CEREC®uses computer-assisted design (CAD) and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) to offer single-day crowns, veneers, and bridges. This new technology has changed ceramic restorations such as crowns and veneers so that there is no longer a wait between the preparation and the final product.

With CEREC®, the technology is used while sitting in the dental chair. The restorations created are metal-free and tooth-colored to restore the tooth’s natural beauty, strength, and function. With CEREC’s CAD-CAM technology, these ceramic restorations can usually be done in a single dental visit to our Texas dental office.
