Shannon is a Registered Nurse with a bachelor’s degree. At 33 years old, her upper left first molar tooth required a root canal and a crown. The end result was intended to be an esthetic, porcelain-fused-to-gold crown. However, the gold was visible at the gum line and just six months later, the porcelain fractured from the gold, leaving her with food trapping and a very rough surface.
Shannon had recently moved. She found Dr. Masek and told him that she wanted a more natural looking crown. He discussed the benefits of a full porcelain, CEREC crown, and she decided to proceed with treatment.
Shannon had her new tooth in less than 2 hours! The final result no longer showed an unsightly dark line at the gum and blended perfectly with the surrounding natural teeth. A beautiful work of art created with CEREC. A highly esthetic CEREC Solution!
