CEREC 3D

What Is CEREC 3D?

CEREC 3D is a high-tech instrument that helps dentists restore damaged teeth. The new "what you see is what you get" software
makes designing the perfect restoration fun and easy.

CEREC 3D stands for Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic
Ceramics. 3D adds an exciting new dimension to the way it works.


How Does CEREC 3D Work?


First, the dentist prepares the damaged tooth by painting a thin layer of reflective powder directly on the tooth¡¯s surface. Using a special camera, the dentist then takes a picture of the tooth. No need to take a messy impression and send it to the lab. As the design of the restoration evolves on-screen, the dentist views it with a full 360- degree perspective.

Freeform editing in three-dimensional realism makes designing the restoration intuitive and precise.

In the virtual world of of CEREC 3D, the dentist views, manipulates and verifies all aspects of restoration design for accuracy and assurance of an ideal fit. The material block is then placed in the milling chamber. Minutes later, milling is complete and the restoration is ready to place.



What Kinds of Procedures Can It Perform?


. Partial and full crowns

. Veneers

. All other single-tooth restorations




Is This a New Technology?

No. For over 15 years, the CEREC System has allowed dental professionals to meet
patient's needs by producing single-visit, all-ceramic at chairside. The CEREC 3D builds upon this impressive track record with a new user interface, freeing the dentist from the cramped confines of the human mouth.
