CEREC Crowns and Bridges
CEREC crowns and bridges are a popular restorative dental procedure that uses computer-aided design and manufacturing (CAD/CAM) technology to create custom dental restorations in just one visit. CEREC stands for Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics, and it allows dentists to create high-quality crowns and bridges that look and function like natural teeth.
Dental Crowns
Dental crowns are tooth-shaped coverings placed over damaged or decayed teeth to restore their function and appearance. Our CEREC crowns are custom-made to fit over the entire tooth, from the gum line to the chewing surface. Ceramic dental crowns protect weakened teeth, prevent further damage or decay, and enhance the smile.
Dental Bridges
Dental bridges are restorations of one or more CEREC ceramic teeth anchored to neighboring teeth or dental implants. These teeth create a “bridge” that fills in the gap left by the missing teeth. CEREC dental bridges are custom-made to match your natural teeth’s shape, size, and color.
Dental Implants
Dental implants are titanium rods that Dr. Yenchesky surgically places within the jawbone. This placement triggers a fusion process known as osseointegration, allowing the implants to mimic your tooth root. They have a natural look, feel, and function, giving you a permanent solution to missing teeth. Our dentist in De Pere uses the latest technology and techniques to ensure your dental implant procedure is comfortable, safe, and effective.
Caring For Your Dental Restoration
Caring for your dental restoration is essential to maintain longevity and prevent further damage to your teeth and gums. Here are some tips to help care for your dental restoration:
- Practice Good Oral Hygiene: Brush twice daily with fluoride toothpaste and floss daily to remove food particles and plaque buildup.
- Avoid Hard or Sticky Foods: Try to avoid chewing on hard objects like ice or hard candy, as well as sticky foods that can pull on your dental restoration.
- Wear a Mouthguard: If you play sports or grind your teeth at night, wearing a mouthguard can protect your dental restoration and prevent further damage.
- Visit Dr. Yenchesky Regularly: Regular check-ups and cleanings at our De Pere dental office can help identify any issues with your dental restoration early on and prevent further damage.
- Follow Special Care Instructions: Depending on your restoration, Dr. Yenchesky may provide special care instructions. For example, if you have a dental implant, you may need to use a special floss or brush to clean the implant.
