Needing a dental crown used to mean multiple appointments, temporary restorations, and weeks of waiting. Thanks to CEREC technology, that experience has changed entirely. At Beausejour Dental Centre, we offer single-day crowns that restore your tooth in one efficient, comfortable visit — without compromising strength, precision, or appearance.
This advanced approach to dental restoration is part of our ongoing commitment to modern, patient-focused care.
What Is CEREC Technology?
CEREC technology is an advanced system that allows dentists to design, create, and place a permanent dental crown during a single appointment.
Instead of sending impressions to an external lab, CEREC enables us to complete the entire process right here in our Beausejour clinic, using digital imaging and in-office milling technology.
How CEREC Technology Enables Single-Day Crowns
The true benefit of CEREC technology lies in how seamlessly it streamlines the crown process.
- Digital Impressions for Exceptional Precision
We use advanced digital scanning to create a highly accurate 3D model of your tooth. This eliminates messy impression trays, improves accuracy and fit, and increases comfort during your visit. Digital impressions reduce the margin for error and allow us to design your crown with exceptional precision. - Custom Crown Design
Using specialized software, your dentist designs your crown based on your natural bite, tooth shape, and surrounding teeth. This ensures the final result looks and feels natural. Many patients enjoy seeing their crown design take shape on-screen a unique benefit of CEREC technology. - In-Office Milling
Your crown is milled from a solid ceramic block right in our clinic. This process typically takes 10–15 minutes and produces a durable, high-quality restoration. - Same-Day Placement
Once finished, your single-day crown is carefully fitted, adjusted, and permanently bonded — all in one visit.
Benefits of CEREC Technology for Dental Crowns
Patients consistently choose CEREC crowns because they combine speed, comfort, and quality.
Efficiency Without Multiple Appointments
Traditional crowns often require two or more visits. CEREC technology allows us to:
- Eliminate temporary crowns
- Avoid follow-up appointments
- Save you time and inconvenience
High-Quality, Durable Materials
CEREC crowns are crafted from strong, tooth-coloured ceramic that:
- Mimics natural enamel
- Resists wear and fractures
- Blends seamlessly with surrounding teeth
Minimally Invasive Tooth Preparation
Because CEREC is so precise, we can often preserve more of your natural tooth structure — a more conservative and long-term approach to restoration.
Predictable, Consistent Results
Everything happens under one roof. That means better quality control, fewer remakes, and more reliable outcomes.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Single-Day Crowns?
Single-day crowns created using CEREC technology are suitable for many patients, including those who need:
