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.

How does it 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.

What kinds of procedures can it perform?

• Partial and full crowns

• Veneers

• All other single-tooth restorations
