Fillings & Same-Day Crowns
Fillings
Our office offers both white composite fillings and silver amalgam fillings. Typically, Dr. Singleton recommends the use of the newer styled white filling, but there are times when the older silver style may be preferred. You and Dr. Singleton can discuss which restoration is most advantageous for your tooth.
Same-Day Crowns
Dr. Singleton uses the CEREC Ceramic Dental Restoration system to provide beautiful, tooth-colored, metal-free crowns that look and feel like your own natural teeth. Unlike traditional lab-fabricated crowns, the CEREC crown is designed and created during your dental appointment. A single visit is all that is needed.
Advantages of CEREC crowns:
- First and foremost, the procedure is completed from start to finish in a single session, which is usually just over an hour long.
- No inconvenience of returning for a second appointment.
- CEREC takes a digital impression, thus, there is no need for messy, uncomfortable impressions.
- The ceramic material is compatible with tissue in your mouth and is high-grade, anti-abrasive and plaque-resistant.
- The restoration is natural looking, because it is made 100% of tooth-colored ceramic material.
- Allows Dr. Singleton to be extremely precise and save more of the healthy part of your tooth.
CEREC is a revolutionary way to restore damaged teeth in a single visit. Making your teeth more beautiful and stronger than even before restoration!
