CeraCap

Restore your natural bite

If you have no cavities but chewing doesn't feel the same,
your teeth may already be sending signals.

When the cusps of your molars gradually wear down from habits
like clenching or grinding, your teeth become shorter
and your chewing balance begins to collapse.

Do You Experience Any of These?

If even one applies,
your teeth may be gradually wearing down.

  • Feeling that molars are lower than before

  • Feeling front teeth touch first when chewing

  • Sensitivity symptoms even though teeth are fine

  • Feeling face looks shorter in photos than before

What is CeraCap Treatment?

For molars whose cusps have been completely worn down and chewing surfaces flattened like floors
due to strong chewing force, clenching during sleep, or grinding habits,
it's treatment to restore cusps to pre-worn occlusal surface shape.

  • Difference from Crowns

    Rather than reducing the body in rectangular form like crowns,
    we only reduce the minimum necessary parts to obtain retention
    and restore only the head like putting on a hat.
    Teeth are restored to pre-worn state without unnecessary reduction.
    It goes against our principles to remove perfectly healthy tooth structure
    just because of wear, especially when there's no cavity.

  • Difference from Inlay/Onlay

    Unlike inlay/onlay which is treatment to deal with cavity, CeraCap is a restoration treatment of time-worn, ground teeth.

  • Production Method

    CeraCap is made with ceramic blocks used for inlay/onlay ceramic fillings. We use milling machines which allows minimal tooth reduction yet strong enough to last.

Why CeraCap
Instead of Crowns?

CeraCap restores only the worn occlusal surface with ceramic
to recreate the height and form of pre-worn teeth.

If it's abrasion, not cavities, there's no need to crown the entire tooth.
It's treatment that protects natural teeth by restoring only the worn occlusal surface.

Cera Dental prioritizes treatment that reduces less and lasts longer
over treatment that crowns extensively.

CeraCap Treatment Purpose

When teeth wear down, cusps are completely ground, and dentin is exposed,
faces become shorter and jaw muscles and joints become strained, causing pain.
As molars gradually grind down and become shorter, front teeth touch each other, and front teeth also grind down and become shorter.

  • Function Recovery

    Recovers oral functions teeth should perform, and digestive function also improves.

  • Tooth Lifespan Extension

    Prevents situations requiring root canal treatment and crown treatment even though there are no cavities due to dentin exposure making teeth sensitive.
    Prevents shortening tooth lifespan by root canal treatment on perfectly fine teeth.

  • Protect Other Teeth

    Restoring ground areas with CeraCap in advance
    can prevent other teeth from deteriorating too.
    Enamel + ceramic adheres well, so adhesion is much better.

  • Reduction Range

    Covers only about 1/3 ~ 2/3 of the tooth.
    Minimally reduces only the amount needed for retention
    without needing to grind and crown everything like crowns.

by Cera Dental

  • Point 01

    Minimal Reduction Principle

    Minimally reduces only the amount needed for retention without needing to grind and crown everything like crowns. Covers only about 1/3 ~ 2/3 of the tooth to preserve natural teeth as much as possible.

  • Point 02

    Milling Machine Production

    CeraCap is produced by running ceramic blocks in a milling machine. We use milling machines because the machine function enables minimal tooth reduction, allowing restoration with precise and minimal reduction.

  • Point 03

    Natural Feel

    CeraCap provides a feeling like natural teeth. Because it re-relaxes shortened and contracted parts, sensitive people say their jaw feels comfortable. You can chew naturally without foreign body sensation.

  • Point 04

    Tooth Lifespan Extension

    Prevents situations requiring root canal treatment and crown treatment even though there are no cavities due to dentin exposure making teeth sensitive. Preserves perfectly fine teeth without shortening tooth lifespan.

CeraCap's completion is a combination of techniques

CeraCap is abrasion restoration treatment, not cavity treatment.

  • POINT 01

    Abrasion Restoration Treatment, Not Cavity Treatment

    CeraCap isn't cavity treatment but treatment to restore worn molars' chewing surfaces to their original form by time. It's a completely different treatment concept from inlay/onlay, with the purpose of restoring time-worn, ground teeth.

  • POINT 02

    Treatment to Restore Cusps

    Restores cusps to pre-ground occlusal surface shape when molar cusps are completely worn and chewing surfaces are flattened like floors due to strong chewing force, clenching during sleep, or grinding habits. Rather than reducing the body in rectangular form like crowns, it restores only the head like putting on a hat.

  • POINT 03

    Produced from Ceramic Blocks

    Made by cutting ceramic blocks identical to those used for inlay/onlay production, so they don't break when chewing and are convenient to maintain. CeraCap is produced by running ceramic blocks in a milling machine, and we use milling machines because the machine function enables minimal tooth reduction.

  • POINT 04

    Facial Form and Function Preservation

    When teeth wear down, cusps are completely ground, and dentin is exposed, faces become shorter and jaw muscles and joints become strained, causing pain. As molars gradually grind down and become shorter, front teeth touch each other, and front teeth also grind down and become shorter. Restoring with CeraCap can prevent these problems.

Feel and Results

CeraCap provides a feeling like natural teeth.
Because it re-relaxes shortened and contracted parts,
sensitive people say their jaw feels comfortable.

You can chew naturally without foreign body sensation,
and comfortable feel is maintained even over time.
