Same-Visit CEREC Crowns
Many crowns can be designed and placed in one appointment using our chairside CEREC system.

Rebuild Damaged and Missing Teeth for Lasting Function
Repair damaged teeth and replace missing ones with strong, natural-looking restorations
Restorative dentistry rebuilds teeth that have been damaged by decay, trauma, wear, or infection, and replaces teeth that are no longer there. At Cook Family Dentistry, we focus on restorations that look natural, chew comfortably, and last for years. Dr. Cook combines training from the Dawson Academy with same-visit CEREC technology, so many crowns can be designed, milled, and placed in a single appointment.
Whether you need a crown, a bridge, a denture, or a gentle root canal to save an infected tooth, we will explain what the tooth needs, what each option costs in time and money, and what we would recommend for someone in our own family. Every plan starts with a thorough exam and digital imaging, so we treat the cause, not just the symptom.

Yes. Our CEREC system designs and mills the crown chairside while you wait, so many patients leave with a permanent crown in a single appointment, no temporary crown needed.
The procedure itself is performed with local anesthesia and is generally not painful. Most of the pain people associate with root canals is the infection that brings them in. Treating the canal relieves that pressure, so patients usually feel significantly better afterward.
Whenever possible, we recommend saving the natural tooth with a crown, root canal, or other restoration. Replacement options like implants and bridges are excellent when extraction is unavoidable, but no replacement matches the proprioceptive feel of a healthy natural tooth.
Yes. We match the color, translucency, and shape of your existing teeth so a crown, bridge, or filling blends in. For visible front teeth, we may use additional steps to create a seamless match.
