Welcome to Dental 1, the office of Dr. Gregg Melfi, where our dedication to quality general and restorative dental care can help your family smile with confidence. We strive to administer complete, comprehensive care with unprecedented customer service. In an effort to respect your family's hectic schedule, we are one of the few dental practices in the metropolitan Providence area that has integrated CEREC. This amazing dental technology enables us to create a computer rendition of a damaged tooth and then mill a custom, beautiful replacement in one visit. That's right - no temporary crown and no follow-up visit are required. In addition, because we have two milling chambers, we can create multiple restorations simultaneously. In over 20 years of practice, Dr. Melfi has corrected poor dental work for many patients, so he appreciates CEREC's lifetime guarantee against breakage in restorations, and you will, too. Although we have a wealth of experience in tooth restorations, we understand the importance of quality preventative and cosmetic care. Regular check ups and proper homecare form the cornerstone of your oral health, and we want to ensure that you have a good foundation and a beautiful smile. When teeth chip or crack, become damaged, or fall out, your smile, oral health, and self esteem suffer. Although it is important to correct the problems, we want to mend the damage as conservatively as possible. CEREC and dental implants offer a conservative means to replace missing teeth with strong, reliable restorations. Computerized modeling and milling creates a comfortable fit and decreases the likelihood of bite issues that often result from traditional crowns and restorations. Our dental team also performs general, preventive, and cosmetic dentistry with the same customer service, respect, and skill of our restorative procedures. For anxious patients, sedation dentistry offers a calming approach to dental care because everyone deserves a healthy smile. Make yourself at home in our practice with complimentary refreshments, movies or music during treatments, and friendly conversation with our passionate dental team. Do you have questions about insurance or financial arrangements? Our administrative staff can help. We look forward to becoming your family's preferred dentist. Call today to schedule your appointment.

* CEREC CEREC Traditionally, dental work has required a significant investment in time and money. Dr. Melfi and our staff have wanted to change this, and thanks to the revolutionary CEREC system, they have. In the past, a patient came in for one appointment, got an injection of anesthesia, had his tooth prepared, an impression taken, and then received a temporary restoration. He had had to return a few weeks later so we could remove the temporary crown and attach the permanent crown. With CEREC, Dr. Melfi can create a computer model of the repair and mill the necessary porcelain pieces in one visit, saving you time and money. A CEREC tooth restoration doesn't just offer a convenient repair; it represents a healthy, strong alternative to old-fashion crowns. Just a few years ago, dentists could repair teeth with amalgam, gold, or other metals. CEREC mills strong, tooth-colored ceramic materials to restore your teeth to their natural strength, beauty, and function. These materials closely match the composition of natural tooth structure, so when you eat hot food and then drink something cold, the repair and tooth expand and contract at an almost equal rate. Because we chemically bond the restoration to your existing tooth, we salvage a good deal of healthy tooth tissue while reinforcing the structure. Not only does CEREC provide sturdy restorations designed to last a lifetime, but the system also allows dentists to produce any single tooth restoration. Chipped or discolored front teeth can be repaired with beautiful CEREC porcelain anterior crowns or veneers. CEREC offers a lifetime warranty against breakage, too, so you can depend on your CEREC crown, onlay, inlay, or veneer. To learn more about CEREC, visit the CEREC Website., * Cerec, zoom
