The CEREC resorations that we use here in our office are the closest thing to enamel that you can find on the market. There are many reasons patients request CEREC restorations: They are long lasting, they have single appointment convenience, they are tooth colored and biocompatible, and they lack post operative sensitivity. One of the most common procedures Dr. Brad Bagwell does here at Smiles Dental Design is removing old mercury fillings and replacing them with a tooth colored ceramic material. These restorations have been proven to last just as long as the mercury fillings and even longer. Set up an appointment with us today and have all those old ugly mercury fillings replaced.

The Value of Time

To realize the value of a year: Ask a student who has failed a final exam

To realize the value of a month: Ask a mother who has given birth to a premature baby.

To realize the value of one week: Ask the editor of a newspaper.

To realize the value of one hour: Ask th eperson who has just missed the train, bus, or plane.

To realize the value of one second: Ask the person who has just one the silver medal in the Olympics.

Time waits for no one. Treasure every moment that you have.

This weekend Dr. Brad Bagwell DMD, PA. and a few of his team members will be attending a two day worskhop presented by Dr. Mark Morin on “CEREC Integration: The Value of Time.” For those who don’t know exactly what CEREC is please visit www.smilesdentaldesign.com and click on “Services” and then on ”CEREC: Single Visit Inlays” to learn all about what the CEREC is and how we here at Smiles Dental Design use it to better our patients teeth.

Attending these lectures really helps Dr. Bagwell and his team learn how to take their CEREC procedures to the next level, making every clinical CEREC experience a wonderful one. One very beneficial thing that the team will be learning is how to reduce patient seat time on every CEREC restorative procedure. Another very important and beneficial thing they will be learning at the lecture is how to explain to patients easier financial and insurance options for the CEREC procedures. 

 There is nothing like getting a new crown/onlay in just a single one hour visit with the CEREC. Without the CEREC, patients would have to have a temporary tooth placed in the mouth for two or more weeks while their final crown/onlay is being fabricated. They would then have to come back for a second visit to have the crown/onlay cemented. The CEREC saves so much time for both our patients and dental team. That is why Dr. Bagwell and his team attend these very informative lectures.

Goodbye 2008 HELLO 2009! Dr. Brad Bagwell and his team here at ‘Smiles Dental Design’ hope that the year of 2008 went well for each and every patient as well as their families. We had a great 2008 year and expect the upcoming year of 2009 to be just as succesful!
