San Jose Dental Implants Expert Places Crowns, Onlays in a Single Visit

    SAN JOSE, CA, September 05, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- San Jose dental implants and cosmetic dentist specialist Dr. Khalil Saghezchi (Dr. Sage) has recently acquired new equipment to perform crown and onlay procedures faster and with more efficiency. With the aid of this new technology, Cerec Acquisition Center (AC) and Milling tools, Dr. Sage's practice can now treat patients in need these services in a single visit.

"With older technology, these procedures would take multiple visits," said Dr. Sage. "I used to give patients a temporary mold while I prepared a permanent crown or onlay. Then, I had to remove the temporary mold for the permanent mold in a separate appointment. But with this cutting-edge equipment, patients can receive full treatment in a single visit and benefit from a full, healthy smile right away. It is truly remarkable."

Made by Sirona, a dental equipment manufacturing company founded in 1997, the Cerec AC enables doctors to create 3D virtual models of the damaged teeth and design the proper restorative using its proprietary software program. Then, with the Cerec Milling work station, doctors mold the permanent restorative. Lastly, the mold is tested on the patient and bonded to the damaged area if the mold is acceptable. Creating a ceramic or porcelain mold can take as little as 25 minutes notes Dr. Sage.

"When patients come to me needing crowns, one of the first questions they ask is how long the procedure will take," said Dr. Sage. "Patients responded negatively when they learned that the procedure would take several weeks and require anesthesia on more than one occasion. Now, thanks to the reduced treatment time, I'm seeing much more positive reactions and even enthusiasm to treatment."

Dr. Sage is a leading San Jose cosmetic dentist and one of the top San Jose dental implants specialists. At Dr. Sage's practice, he provides several dental services including crowns, dental implants, teeth whitening, fillings, laser gum reshaping, inlays, onlays, full mouth reconstruction, treatment for neuromuscular pain, and general dentistry.

"We are proud to provide the best dental services available for our patients," said Dr. Sage. "At my practice, it is imperative to keep the patients as happy and comfortable as possible, and investing in this new equipment accomplishes just that."
