CEREC Dentistry in Leicester

CEREC (Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics) is an advanced dental technology that allows us to design, create, and fit ceramic restorations—such as crowns, veneers, inlays, and onlays—in just one visit.

Using state-of-the-art CAD/CAM (Computer-Aided Design/Manufacturing) technology, we take a precise digital scan of your tooth, design your custom restoration, and mill it from a high-quality ceramic block—all within a single appointment. This means no messy impressions, no temporary crowns, and no waiting weeks for a lab-made restoration.

CEREC restorations are designed to be durable and long-lasting, typically lasting between 10 to 15 years, and often much longer with proper care. Their lifespan depends on factors such as oral hygiene, bite forces, and dietary habits. Regular brushing, flossing, and professional cleanings help maintain the restoration, while avoiding excessive grinding or clenching (or wearing a night guard if necessary) can prevent premature wear. Additionally, steering clear of extremely hard or sticky foods can help protect the restoration from unnecessary stress. A well-placed and properly bonded CEREC restoration by an experienced dentist also plays a key role in its longevity. With good oral care and routine dental check-ups, many patients find their CEREC restorations last 15 years or more, making them a strong and convenient choice for tooth restoration.

At our dental clinic the cost of a CEREC restoration is £475 per tooth.

This price includes the full process, from digital scanning and custom design to the fabrication and fitting of your high-quality ceramic restoration—all in a single visit. CEREC offers excellent value for money, providing a durable, natural-looking, and long-lasting solution without the need for multiple appointments or temporary restorations.
