The Cad/Cam technology that he uses is not new. It has been available for over a decade, but due to the high cost of the equipment needed to produce these crowns, few dentist are willing to invest in the technology.
Normally crowns have to be made in the laboratory, a process that takes about two weeks and requires the patient to wear a temporary that could loosen or fall out and would require a second visit to remove the temporary, try the new crown and if all goes well, cement it.
Dr. Carlos Boudet also does porcelain crowns in the laboratory for special cases that require it, but for those that want the convenience of not having to take time to schedule a second appointment having their porcelain crowns done in one day is great service.
The equipment that Cosmetic Dentist Carlos Boudet uses is Cerec from Sirona, which was the first cad cam system to be designed for dentists. With more than a decade of research and improvements, it is the system with the most experience and best track record in the market.
The way the system works is this:
The dentist prepares the tooth or teeth the same way, but instead of taking an impression with a paste inside a tray, a small camera takes a digital impression and transmits it to the computer, where the dentist designs the crown for the patient. Once the design is done, it is sent wirelessly to a milling machine that uses diamond bits to carve the crown out of a solid block of porcelain. Then when the crown is finished and polished, the dentist bonds it in place in the mouth and the whole procedure is done in one visit.
As a general dentist Dr. Boudet provides a variety of services for his patients such as dental implants with many years of experience both placing and restoring dental implants with great success. Dr. Boudet also provides orthodontic services including Invisalign clear aligners and laser dentistry that increases the comfort and speeds healing in many cases where surgery would be needed.
Dr. Boudet has been providing caring expert dental care for his patients since 1983 in the area of West Palm Beach and adjacent communities such as Palm Beach, Palm Springs, Wellington, Lake Worth, Royal Palm Beach and surrounding areas.
