is a high-tech device used to
design and manufacture ceramic tooth restorations at
the dental practice while the patient waits.
The CEREC® equipment comprises a digital infrared
camera for obtaining an optical impression of the
damaged tooth, 3D Computer Aided Design (CAD) software to
help the dentist design the ideal restoration for the
clinical situation, and Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM)
technology that uses two high-speed diamond burs to mill
a precise restoration according to the CAD software specifications.
The milling process is complete in less than 20 minutes,
and the entire restorative procedure is completed in a
single appointment.
