Tom is a 38 year old, technician with a large gas & electric company. He has a great personality and an attractive smile that he loves to share with his wife and 2 young boys. The only problem …he had a big, black amalgam filling in one of his teeth, that showed whenever he smiled.
Although Tom wanted to improve the appearance of his smile, he was also concerned about having a crown and losing more of his natural tooth than necessary.
Dr. Masek discussed treatment options and explained the differences between a crown and a CEREC Porcelain Onlay. The Onlay would allow Tom to keep a significant amount of his healthy tooth structure and still provide a long lasting, visually pleasing result.
The CEREC system allowed Dr. Masek to create an onlay for Tom in just one visit. Tom can now beam with confidence!
