One Visit Restorations with CEREC Technology

Thanks to CEREC technology, Dr. Jason Pellegrino at Pellegrino Cosmetic and Family Dentistry can provide patients with inlays, onlays, crowns and veneers in only one appointment. CEREC is an advanced dental technology that is utilized for the restoration of decayed, cracked, or chipped teeth and has been developed to provide you with the best possible treatment during a single visit.


With CEREC technology, you can have finished restorations in three easy steps: scanning, designing, and milling/grinding. CEREC restorations are made of compressed porcelain to match the color of your natural tooth and it for this reason that they are stronger than laboratory restorations, which are layered porcelain. The procedure to place a CEREC restoration is simple. The first step is to remove all decay from the tooth then shape the tooth in preparation to take a digital picture.  Once this image is captured, the tooth will appear on a computer screen in 3D.  This will allow the doctor to design the restoration right in front of you.
