What is CEREC?

Cerec PhotoCEREC is an in house computerized system that lets us quickly and economically restore damaged teeth using a durable ceramic material that matches the natural color of other teeth in your mouth. The restoration can be performed in a single session, usually in about one hour. With CEREC there's no need for us to make an impression and send it to a lab. We won't inconvenience you by asking you to return for a second visit.

 

Cerec PhotoThe Process

The entire process is accomplished in 3 steps.

STEP ONE

The defective filling and decay is removed. A reflective powder layer prepares the tooth for imaging.


 Cerec PhotoSTEP TWO

 An optical 3D image is acquired with a small camera, directly in your mouth.

The restoration is created on the screen using the image data.

Diamond Coated instruments mill a ceramic block to reproduce the design.

This is accomplished using Computer Aided Design/Computer Aided Manufacture (CAD/CAM).

 Cerec PhotoSTEP THREE

 After polishing, the new restoration fits precisely.

A unique light hardens the bonding material, uniting porcelain and tooth.

Polishing or glazing ensures a pleasantly smooth and natural feel. The color and appearance make the special ceramic material blend with your tooth.

Perfectly bonded porcelain ensures an extremely long life for your teeth. Maximum strength, great looks!
