What is CEREC? CEREC stands for Chairside Restoration of Esthetics Ceramics.

The result is a number of cosmetic dental restorations in a matter of minutes.
Why CEREC technology is generating a buzz in the present society? This latest technology can construct porcelain veneers in just a single visit. This means you can have a better-looking teeth in real-time.
How is it done? It is done using a computer-aided model and an optical impression. The cosmetic dentist can make an optical impression by painting the tooth using a non-tooth titanium dioxide powder. The powder enables the infrared waves believed at your teeth to be interpreted more exactly. Because of this a high resolution optical impression of your teeth is achieved. You can view the optical impression on a monitor beside the chair.
During the cosmetic dentistry procedure, your teeth will be evaluated to identify the best treatment for your specific needs. If the restoration procedure is recommended, your tooth will undergo a preparation for the restoration. An optical impression of your tooth will be constructed. This high resolution optical impression will be utilized for producing a ceramic restoration that goes well with your teeth.
The ceramic restoration usually takes 15 minutes to finish. The restoration will be tested for proper fit. The result is an amazing dental restoration that looks like your natural teeth.
