CEREC has changed the way dentists implement patient restorations. CEREC stands for ceramic construction. CEREC is a process where the mouth area is scanned where the restoration will be placed. The dentist will then create a replacement that will then be restored in the same appointment. It’s a 3D imaging and camera assisted design centre allows digital impressions of teeth which are then used to create virtual restorations.
CEREC can be used to produce onlays, inlays, crowns, and bridges. This is all done without taking mould impressions. This whole process from scanning to restoration of the tooth is all done in the same visit.
Frequently asked questions:
Yes. CEREC can help anyone who needs an inlay, onlay, crown, bridge, or veneers. It takes seconds to get an accurate and detailed image of your teeth
This process does not take long at all. Your dentist will use the CEREC CAD/CAM technology to virtually design a restoration. The time can vary patient to patient. This can be due to the experience as well as the complexity of your restoration.
In the days following your restoration you may feel sensitivity for a few days. However exact experiences can vary from patient to patient. You can expect a crown produced by CEREC has the potential to last for many years, as long as you use good oral hygiene and are not grinding your teeth.
