Cerec

CEREC is a sophisticated computer-aided system for producing durable high-quality ceramic restorations. It is simple to use, fast and conserves the natural tooth. CEREC is ideal for patients who want an authentic tooth-coloured alternative to amalgam or gold. In many cases CEREC allows tooth restorations to be completed in a single session — without impressions, temporaries or long waiting periods.

Perfect teeth in five easy steps

• Before treatment starts Dr. Mark Peddey will inform you about all the benefits of CEREC
• The first step is to remove the dental caries and/or the existing filling. The CEREC measuring camera then takes a three-dimensional photograph of your tooth
• The contours of the ceramic restoration are designed on the computer monitor
• CEREC automatically mills the restoration out of a tooth-coloured ceramic block
• Finally, the restoration is inserted into your tooth and polished. The finished ceramic restoration looks and feels exactly like natural dental enamel
