The exceptional dental technology available at Artistic Dentistry helps you achieve a beautiful smile
Ceramic Reconstruction (CEREC)
Dr. Roussel offers his patients some of the most advanced equipment and techniques available in modern dentistry, like CEREC. This is a revolutionary CAD/CAM technology that allows him to create ceramic crowns and veneers in a single appointment without the need for impressions or temporaries. His intra-oral camera produces high-resolution images of your teeth and gums for a more thorough evaluation and to guide him on the most appropriate treatment. With the help of digital X-ray technology, he can pinpoint potential problems on a computer screen that you view in real-time without having to leave your chair. Because your safety is always of primary concern, Dr. Roussel uses sterilization procedures that meet or exceed OSHA guidelines. The CEREC process provides more strength than traditional crowns and incredibly natural-looking results. In addition, if you have an emergency situation involving a broken tooth, he can provide crowns in one visit. |
