This is Hi-Tech Dentistry

A Brand-New Smile in one visit.

Yes, it's true. Procedures that used to take multiple visits over many weeks can now be completed in one visit. Using the latest in dental technology, we can restore damaged teeth, replace unsightly fillings, and give you a completely new smile...and you can watch it work.

CEREC Before CEREC After

What is CEREC?

CEREC stands for Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics. If that seems like a mouthful, well, it is...a mouth full of natural-looking teeth. Basically, we can restore damaged teeth in a way never before possible.

It starts with high-resolution digital imaging. We take pictures of your damaged tooth with the specially-designed CEREC camera, and generate a 3D model of your tooth. CEREC's Computer-Aided Design (CAD) technology then allows you and Dr. Banchefsky to design the restoration on a computer monitor right at your chair!

Once the restoration has been designed, the CEREC system takes over, and begins to sculpt your new restoration out of a block of ceramic. A high-speed diamond-topped drill and disk worth together to ensure that the restoration fits precisely into your existing tooth. We then use ultra-strong adhesive to bond the restoration to your tooth.

So many advantages

With CEREC restorations, there is no unsightly silver in your mouth. The ceramic we use matches the natural color of your tooth. It's also plaque-resistant, so we can save more of your healthy tooth.

Depending on severity, the entire procedure takes one to two hours, from imaging to implant. No temporary crowns, no impressions to send off to a lab, no second visit.

You and Dr. Banchefsky can design a custom restoration for your tooth at your chair.

It's really cool to see this thing work. Honestly.
