CEREC Restorations:
Teeth like you’ve never had before
Teeth like you’ve never had before
Most of the cavities receiving dental care world-wide in today’s dental practices are treated either with amalgam (metal) fillings or a full crown. Today amalgam is being rejected by an ever increasing number of patients – it is ugly, weakens teeth and is potentially harmful to your health and the environment.
On the other hand, the move to composites by many dentists is also accompanied by problems with durability. But, ceramic restorations made with CEREC, a state-of-the-art dental restoration system, offering a superior alternative.
Repairing teeth can be extremely complicated and very often, costly. Alan Miller Dental Clinic is one of the only dental clinics in Australia that uses the CEREC computer restoration system. This allows us to undertake the most complex procedures in just one or two visits, and usually in less than one hour!
How does CEREC work?
After your tooth is prepared, it is scanned with an electronic camera that allows you to see your tooth on a video screen. The restoration is designed from this scan and then automatically milled out from a solid ceramic block. This is accomplished so precisely that it can be accurately fitted and durably bonded to the prepared cavity immediately. All done!
CEREC restorations are made from ceramic – a natural substance that is particularly compatible with the body. CEREC ceramic has the same characteristics as normal, healthy dental enamel. This means it is similarly hard wearing. For example, it is not affected by hot or cold, coffee or ice-cream, and withstands daily grinding of all foodstuffs. Also, CEREC ceramic is so smooth that bacteria do not stand a chance to adhere to the restoration. Even under close inspection, there is absolutely no difference between your own teeth and your CEREC restoration.
You can elect to have any number of CEREC restorations:
•Inlays inserted into an existing tooth to repair it
•Onlays and partial Crowns, if you have missing teeth and they need to be replaced
•Veneers for the restoration of decayed or broken teeth and to give a cosmetic smile

Dental Implants restore your teeth for life!
Dental Implants restore your teeth for life!
If you are missing one tooth or more, you may soon find that there are other things you miss. You may miss the comfort of your own teeth, the ability to enjoy harder foods, unrestrained laughter, even kissing. In short, you may miss living as you have always lived.
Fortunately, you can choose among a number of ways to replace your tooth crowns. But there is only one perfect solution. When you replace one tooth or several teeth with Branemark System® dental implants you don’t harm either other teeth or your gums. The implant feels and serves exactly like real teeth. Furthermore they stay in place for as long as, or even longer, than real teeth.
The principle behind a Branemark System dental implant is osseo integration which is the process taking place when titanium bonds to human tissue. A Branemark System implant is a titanium screw in the jaw-bone on which a new tooth is built.
Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers are very thin shells of tooth-coloured porcelain that are used to improve the appearance of stained or chipped teeth – particularly front teeth. They are ‘stuck’ or bonded to the teeth in a procedure similar to attaching a false nail to a finger. Porcelain Veneers can be fitted to any number of your teeth over two short visits.
The result is a complete mouth make-over, providing a new smile and new found confidence!
Bleaching
Dr Alan Miller can provide a complete bleaching treatment for your teeth, bringing them back to a natural and glowing super white. This treatment can be completed by use of a laser system in only one short visit. It is simple, inexpensive and requires no anaesthetic or drilling. We can also ensure you keep them this way, with a follow-up at-home whitening care kit.
Hygiene Program
At Alan Miller Dental Practice, we will provide you with your own teeth hygiene and maintenance program, to ensure the treatments we carry out last you a lifetime. We will advise on maintenance work you can continue at home, and can provide you with a complete easy-to-use personalised maintenance system to be applied at home, to keep your teeth healthy and vital.
