Fillings
CEREC
Cerec is a new digital way of making crowns and fillings. Using specialised camera and computer equipment an image is taken of the tooth. A fully porcelain (metal-free) filling is then designed using CAD software. This design is sent to a CAM milling machine within the surgery, and the tooth is restored with a custom fabricated filling/crown in about 1 hour. We are the only practice in Lisburn to have this 21st century technology »Further CEREC Information.
Tooth coloured fillings
In almost all of the situations where a silver filling has or would be placed a natural tooth coloured alternative
is possible. These fillings can be made and placed in your toothin a single appointment using the most up to date
dental adhesives. Sometimes, the filling can be handmade by skilled technicians in the dental laboratory, from
impressions taken of your teeth by your dentist. Just a week or two later the filling is ready to fit using the
same dental adhesives.
