How much does a CEREC same-day crown cost in Brooklyn?

Same-day CEREC crowns in Brooklyn run $1,000-$1,800 — often the same or slightly more than traditional crowns, but you save a second appointment.

Is a same-day CEREC crown as good as a lab crown?

Modern CEREC zirconia and E-max crowns match lab quality for most cases. For very front teeth with layered shading requirements, a ceramist-crafted lab crown can still look marginally more natural.

How long does a CEREC appointment take?

90-120 minutes end-to-end: 10 minutes scanning, 15 minutes design, 20 minutes milling, 15 minutes glazing/firing, then prep + cementation.

Is CEREC covered by insurance?

Yes — most insurance covers CEREC crowns at the same rate as traditional crowns (usually 50%).

Does CEREC work for front teeth?

Yes, with the right block selection. E-max and high-translucency zirconia blocks match front-tooth aesthetics well. Complex multi-layer cosmetic cases may still benefit from lab work.

What's the difference between CEREC and Planmeca?

Both are digital scan + mill systems. CEREC (Sirona) is the market leader with the largest material library; Planmeca has newer scanning tech. Both produce equivalent results in skilled hands.

Can CEREC do veneers too?

Yes — CEREC can mill thin veneers. For minimal-prep cosmetic veneers in a single visit, it's a popular choice. Layered cosmetic veneers may still prefer lab fabrication.

What if I need a crown on a back molar?

Zirconia is the block of choice for molars due to strength. CEREC zirconia crowns have excellent longevity on high-bite-force teeth.

How long do CEREC crowns last?

10-15 years for zirconia, 10-12 years for E-max — same as lab crowns when milled and cemented properly.

Does CEREC require local anesthesia?

Yes — the tooth still needs to be prepared (shaped) to accept the crown, which requires numbing.

Can I eat immediately after a CEREC crown?

Avoid hard foods for the first 24 hours while the cement fully sets. After that, normal eating resumes.

What if my CEREC crown needs adjustment later?

Your dentist can polish or reshape it in 5-10 minutes. If it fails, replacement is covered under standard crown warranty terms.

Is CEREC available at all dental offices?

No — the equipment costs $100,000+ so it's usually in larger or technology-focused practices. Ask before booking if same-day is important to you.

Can I get a same-day inlay or onlay?

Yes — inlays and onlays are ideal CEREC cases. Turnaround is even faster than crowns (about 60-90 minutes total).

Will my CEREC crown match my other teeth?

Modern CEREC blocks come in all VITA shades and can be custom-stained. Your dentist will pick the closest shade and fine-tune with stain/glaze firings before cementation.
