One-Day Crowns with CEREC

We know you’re busy and don’t want to spend your life in a dentist office. That’s why we use CEREC technology to provide crowns to our patients in just one appointment.

CEREC computer technology creates a 3D model of the patient’s teeth. The CEREC machine can then manufacture the perfect dental crown right here in our office–within minutes!

What is CEREC?

Chairside: Your dentist will complete your crowns in the patient room from start to finish–no labs necessary.

Economical: You’ll only have to spend your money and time on a single visit and one perfect dental restoration. You won’t need temporaries or follow-up appointments.

Restorations: CEREC crowns will restore your natural smile to its optimal beauty and strength.

Esthetic: Single day crowns look stunning, and are designed to match your natural teeth.

Ceramic: Expect nothing less than high-quality ceramic materials that will feel and look completely real.

Digital X-Rays

At Wilder Dentistry, we use digital x-rays which reduce patient exposure to radiation by 80-90%. This technique uses an electronic sensor instead of traditional x-ray film. This sensor instantly captures and stores detailed digital images onto a computer.

Within moments, you and Dr. Wilder will be able to view the images of your gums, teeth, and bones on a nearby monitor. He can enlarge any part of the image to gather more information, and to make it easier for you to understand your needs. Digital x-rays result in more accurate diagnoses and highly effective treatments.

Digital x-rays can uncover all kinds of problems that may go unnoticed by the doctor and patient during a quick look at the teeth. It is important that we detect these problems early so that your treatment can be affordable, painless, and successful.

Dental Cone Beam CT

When regular x-rays are not sufficient, we can also use a Cone Beam CT scan to produce 3D images of your teeth, soft tissues, nerve pathways, and bone. There’s little to no special preparation for this type of scan.

This can be used in preparation for dental surgery or implant placement, diagnosing joint disorders or jaw tumors, and locating the origin of pain.

Telescopic Loupe

Telescopic loupes are binocular-like devices that attach to the front rim of your dentist’s glasses. Telescopic loupes allow Dr. Wilder to discover detailed information about your oral health that may go unnoticed in a traditional exam.

Dr. Wilder has years of experience identifying disease and decay, but no dentist can see everything with a basic visual inspection. Some fractures and cavities are microscopic, so the assistance of the telescopic loupe is needed.

We can use the telescopic loupe for exams and various procedures. This technology ensures that your results are flawless.

Paperless Charting

your important records. X-rays, charting, and notes are all in one convenient location, and are accessible to you and your dentist at the press of a button.

Benefits of paperless charting include:

• No more paperwork
• Consistent and decipherable records

Electronic Claims

Electronic claims processing means that we send your dental claim electronically to your insurance company, instead of through the mail. Within seconds, your electronic claim is submitted. The insurance company can respond promptly so you can get the affordable treatments that you need.

That means you’ll get a faster turnaround and fewer errors on your claims.
