CEREC is digital dentistry that uses CAD/CAM or Computer-aided design and milling to create beautiful porcelain Crowns and Onlays (a type of porcelain filling) in a single convenient visit. You will no longer need to have two visits to the office or tolerate a temporary crown!
Digital Imaging
Cornerstone Dental carefully chooses which type and when radiographs are necessary as there are many guidelines we follow. Radiographs allow us to see everything we cannot see with our own eyes. They enable us to detect cavities between your teeth, determine bone level, and analyze the health of your bone. We can also examine the roots and nerves of your teeth, diagnose lesions such as cysts or tumors, as well as assess damage when trauma occurs. With digital imaging, radiation exposure is also reduced up to 90%.
Intra-oral Camera
Many patients, are very familiar with the latest technology and are comfortable with a high-tech practice.
Cornerstone Dental utilizes intraoral camera technology that helps enhance your understanding of your diagnosis. An intra-oral camera is a very small camera – in some cases, just a few millimeters long, that allows us to view clear, precise images of your mouth, teeth, and gums. With clear, defined, enlarged images, you see details that may be missed by the naked eye. This can mean faster diagnosis and less chair-time for you!
Intra-oral cameras also enable us to save your images in our office computer to provide a permanent record of treatments. These images can be printed for you, other specialists, labs, or insurance companies.
