Dental Technology today is changing our everyday lives. Many people, however, aren't aware that technology also is impacting dentistry in new and exciting ways. Cutting-edge innovations in dental instruments are requiring less time in the dental chair, causing less discomfort and creating satisfying results. One breakthrough instrument, called CEREC 3D, allows dentists to quickly restore damaged teeth with natural-colored ceramic fillings, saving patients time and inconvenience.

CEREC Method
The name CEREC stands for CEramic REConstruction. The method was developed by Prof. W. Mormann and Dr. M. Brandestini in 1980 at the University of Zurich in Switzerland. The first patients had been treated with CEREC inlays in 1985 at the University of Zurich. From this time CEREC has undergone continuous technical and clinical developments. Today, it is used worldwide by a growing number of dentists in their practices.

The CEREC method means today:
The CEREC method combines adhesive bonding techniques with rapid production of all-ceramic inlays, onlays, partial crowns, veneers and crowns for the anterior, premolar and molar regions. This results in a unique combination creating biocompatible, non-metallic, natural looking restorations from durable high-quality ceramic materials, in a single treatment session, and without the need of provisional fillings.
