Dr. Hironaka's office is especially excited to offer patients the CEREC system to create computerized, precision-fit tooth-colored ceramic restorations in one visit without messy impressions or temporaries. The CEREC  is a CAD CAM system or Computer Aided Design and Computer Aided Manufacturing.

Color video digital impressions are taken in a matter of seconds and virtual models are created as well as virtual restorations ( fillings, partial crowns, & crowns).  A final restoration is created by precision milling a ceramic block in a matter of 5 - 10 minutes.

The fit of the restoration is verified on your tooth and then bonded to your tooth.  Patients save time by not having a return visit for cementation and worrying about temporaries that leak or break.
