Cerec Same Day Crowns

You Get The Latest In Technology at Northgate Dental

As a leading local dentist who has built her reputation on skill, compassion and knowledge, Dr. Cox always provides the latest in dental technology to improve her patients experience before, during and after their visit. And thanks to the Cerec Same Day Crown technology, she can provide her patients with inlays, onlays, crowns and veneers in only one appointment. By creating highly esthetic metal free restorations without the need of impressions or temporaries, the CAD/CAM system has been proven for over 30 years in practices worldwide and over 250 scientific studies have confirmed the clinical safety of the tried and tested Cerec all ceramic tooth restoration system. More than 30 million tooth restorations have been produced with the Cerec System.

Our Cerec Same Day Crown System Provides Convenience and Results

At Northgate Dental, we are proud to be one of the few local dentists who provide Cerec Same Day Crown technology. This has been a huge benefit for our patients allowing them to avoid waiting for 2-3 weeks for their crown to return from a lab. We create a strong, customized, tooth-colored ceramic restoration right here in our office. One appointment, one amazing result.

Look at this video to see how the Cerec process combined with the Intra Oral Camera creates a restoration quickly and accurately.

How We Create a Same Day Crown

Using the Cerec crown system we make your crown in a single appointment and the aesthetics are beautiful. In the course of one visit, we can diagnose and prepare your damaged tooth, create an optical impression of the tooth, and use Cerec to design and mill a precision restoration. This is then permanently bonded to your tooth, creating beautiful esthetics and function. With the help of the Cerec Same Day Crown system, your tooth is restored in just a couple hours. Proof again that our practice truly is built around your smile.

Welcome to Northgate Dental

Catherine Cox DDS is Now Northgate Dental

Our name is new, but our practice is not. Previously known as Catherine Cox DDS, we are proud to announce our new business name, Northgate Dental. For over 25 years, Dr. Catherine Cox has had her name on the door providing thousands of patients with professional dental healthcare services in the Terra Linda, San Rafael area. And we’re still at our convenient location in the Northgate Medical & Dental Center at 750 Las Gallinas right behind Northgate One Mall. Dr. Cox will continue to provide her personal touch and professional dental care alongside her trusted and experienced staff of over 12 years. We look forward to getting to know your teeth!

Why We Changed Our Name To Northgate Dental

For over two decades, Dr. Catherine Cox has provided professional dental care for thousands of families right here in the heart of Marin County. Dr. Cox realized that a name change and rebrand would positively impact her dental practice and her patients. So changing her business name to one that’s easy to remember and matches her convenient location in the Northgate Dental and Medical Center right behind Northgate One Mall in Terra Linda, San Rafael was too good of an opportunity to pass up.  So Northgate Dental was born.

We Have Refreshed Our Website and Created a New Logo Brand

To compliment our new name we’ve added a vastly improved website that will make our dental services easier to provide for our patients and also easier to understand. A new logo brand identity will make its mark as we grow and evolve with the new name. We are considering expanding our office services and have added some amazing new patient offerings that are FREE.

A Message From Dr. Cox

“Creating an online experience for my patients that better reflected my vision, and taking advantage of the local iconic name of Northgate were the main reasons I renamed my business Northgate Dental. Our bold new logo brand and vastly improved website are just the beginning of the family dental experience we’re re-creating here. I’m looking forward to improving on what we offer now and making the dental experience for every patient, current or new, even better. Please drop by and see how things have changed, and let us know how we can help. We’d love to bring you and your family on board at Northgate Dental. Our practice is built around your smile. Keep brushing and flossing!”
