Advanced Technology
Same-Day Crowns with CEREC
We know your time is precious, so Truman Lake Dental in Warsaw, MO is excited to announce a new procedure called “CEREC” (Chairside economical restoration of esthetic ceramics). It involves a digital impression from the office’s new acquisition unit called Omnicam that takes a scan from the mouth and transfers this information to the milling unit that produces the crown.
The process of this innovative equipment allows our dentists to construct, produce and insert individual ceramic restorations directly at the time of treatment in a single appointment.
3D Cone Beam
This technology also helps patients who previously could not tolerate X-Ray films. Our dental team continues to advance our training and provide state-of-the-art technology to deliver our patients the best care, in the most comfortable surroundings!
