CEREC® is STATE of THE ART TECHNOLOGY that makes use of computerized images, that help to bring the dental laboratory to the consulting room.  No need for impressions or second visits!  For our patients this means fewer injections, less drilling and less time to take off to visit the dentist!  To finally say goodbye to that ‘METAL MOUTH', choose CEREC natural fillings.   CEREC® makes it possible to prepare, design and fit all ceramic restorations in only  ONE SINGLE visit!!

THE CERAMIC

• The CEREC® restorations are made from ceramic, a natural substance that is compatible with the body. It has the same characteristics as normal healthy enamel.
• It is similarly hard wearing, unaffected by hot / cold (coffee or ice-cream) and wear the same as enamel when grinding food.
• The ceramic is so smooth that bacteria cannot penetrate it
• No metallic taste
• No effects from electric currents ("shock' as in 2 opposing metal fillings)

BENEFITS OF CEREC® INLAYS

• Restoring of big defects often requires crowning, but with CEREC®  inlays the strength of the new tooth is sufficient to eliminate the use of full crowns, which serve in the perseverance of more healthy tooth structure.
• The ceramic is stain resistible and will never discolour.
• The ceramic will not cause opposing tooth wear (Unlike other porcelains)
• Ideal for replacing of metal fillings of any size. (No unsightly "blue-ish" tint on teeth)
• Only 1 visit is necessary.
• Restore cracked or broken teeth.
• Ideal for restoring sensitive teeth due to wear, decay or fracture.          
• Ideal for restoring teeth in the patient with a strong bite ( grinding teeth).
• Longlasting and durable restoration.
• No need for crowning of teeth in many cases.
