Single Visit Crowns in South Tampa, Florida

Single Visit Crowns

An image of the tooth from a 3D camera is sent to a milling machine accurate to 25 microns which is more accurate than any lab.

At South Tampa Smiles, we understand it can be difficult to fit a visit to the dentist into your busy schedule. That's why we invested in a machine called a CEREC that makes crowns right in our office. With CEREC you can be in and out in a single visit with a permanent, all ceramic crown, onlay or veneer! For the patient this means fewer injections, less drilling and less time out of your hectic schedule for dental care. The entire appointment takes a little over an hour.

What does this mean for a patient?

A tooth-colored restoration means no more silver fillings discoloring smiles. The filling is natural-looking, compatible with tissue in the mouth, anti-abrasive and plaque resistant. Dentists no longer need to create temporaries or take impressions and send them to a lab. Because of this, the traditional second visit has been eliminated.

What Are the Advantages CEREC Offers?

  • No need for Dr. Cannariato to take an impression and send it to a lab.
  • No return visits for you.
  • The restoration is natural looking, as it is made out of tooth-colored ceramic material.
  • Ceramic material is biocompatible, high-grade, anti-abrasive and plaque-resistant.
  • Metal-free -- no silver-colored fillings.
  • Allows us to save more of the healthy tooth.

If you've been putting off getting a crown because you don't think you have time in your busy schedule, give us a call to learn more about CEREC Single Visit Crowns.
