Digital Impression
After examining the tooth and determining the course of treatment,
we will prepare your tooth for restoration, similarly to traditional
treatment methods. Your prepared tooth will be coated with a safe,
tasteless powder. CEREC® then uses a state-of-the-art digital
3D camera to create an optical impression. This digital image replaces
the physical impression required in traditional procedures. No more
long waits while a tray of impression goop hardens in your mouth.
Computer Aided Design
(CAD)
State-of-the-art CAD software allows us to design every precise
detail of your restoration with the accuracy you've come to expect
from us. The software allows us to customize the shape of the restoration
to exactly fit your specific clinical needs.
Mill And Place (CAM)
While you wait, exact design specifications are sent to our on-site
milling machine to create your restoration. About 15 minutes later,
your all-ceramic, color-matched restoration is ready for placement.
Your new restoration is then fitted, polished, and bonded for permanence.
Your tooth is restored back to its natural form, function and beauty.
No more temporaries. No more need for a second visit. Depending
on severity, the whole procedure will last between 1.5 to 2 hours.
