CEREC CAD/CAM Technology

With the CEREC Acquisition system, our doctors complete all of your care in just one visit - start to finish!

Our new acquisition of the CEREC CAD/CAM AC XL Bluecam, and oven unit allows our offices to better treat our patients through offering them a much stronger restoration that looks incredible.

With the use of this new machine we can create a far superior restoration on the basis of strength and aesthetics than primitive mill units did. With the use of the next generation in in office milling technology we can offer our patients multiple unit restorations and temporaries the same day using our milling units.

Rather than taking an impression with gooey impression material in a tray that you bite down on, the doctor will take an optical impression of your prepared tooth by coating the tooth with a safe, tasteless powder. A camera is used to take a digital picture of your tooth. The entire process takes only a minute or two!

The doctor is now ready to use the CEREC machine to create the restoration for your tooth. CEREC 3-D software takes the digital picture and converts it into a three-dimensional model on the computer screen. Combining the CEREC 3-D software program and their own dental expertise, our experienced doctors design your restoration.

Within a few minutes, your doctor clicks a button and the restoration design data that has been created is sent to a separate milling machine (a machine which cuts the restoration material to very precise standards) right in our office. A block of ceramic material matching your tooth shade is placed into this machine. In approximately 10 to 20 minutes, your all-ceramic, tooth-colored restoration is ready to be bonded into place.

The ceramic fillings and crowns produced by the CEREC system look completely natural so that they blend perfectly with all the teeth around the milled units. CEREC restorations are also of exceptional strength and are especially appropriate for use in the back teeth which bear the force of grinding the food.

With the advent of bonding, porcelain veneers, and a variety of cosmetic dental procedures, the placement of unaesthetic metal restorations is no longer necessary. Because it is able to produce any single-tooth restoration, CEREC shines in this area also, allowing our doctors to repair chipped or discolored front teeth with highly aesthetic ceramic crowns or veneers.

The CEREC system has been proven in use for nearly 20 years, producing over 6 million strong and beautiful dental restorations.
