Advantages of making a cerec ceramic crown
- Processing time. The procedure is performed in one step, which saves the patient’s time
- Accuracy. The use of a full-cycle CAD/CAM system allows you to accurately scan the oral cavity and model prostheses
- Material. The use of high-quality ceramics ensures the durability and aesthetics of the products
CAD/CAM system
A CAD/CAM system is a state-of-the-art dental tool that combines computer modeling and manufacturing for precise and rapid dental restorations. “CAD” stands for “computer-aided design,” where virtual models of teeth are created and carefully designed. "CAM" stands for "computer aided manufacturing" in which these models are materialized into physical prosthetics.
This technology is especially valued for its diagnostic accuracy and ability to quickly create detailed dentures. CEREC is a leader in CAD/CAM systems due to its ability to provide a complete treatment cycle in the dental chair, from design to fabrication of the prosthesis. The name CEREC stands for "cost-effective restoration of aesthetic ceramics on the patient's side" or "ceramic reconstruction", emphasizing the speed and quality of the restoration.
Main stages of the procedure:
- Scanning: obtaining accurate images of the patient's teeth
- Design: creating a virtual model of the future prosthesis
- Manufacturing: milling a prosthesis from a ceramic block
CEREC, developed by Sirona in Germany, has been continuously improved since 1987. In 2015, Sirona and DENTSPLY International, two giants of the dental industry, merged, strengthening their position in the field of innovative technologies under the DENTSPLY SIRONA brand. Today, dentists around the world use these systems to provide fast and quality dental prosthetic solutions.
Practical application
Modern CEREC equipment has expanded its capabilities to the installation of implants. Thanks to the integration of surgical and orthopedic stages, doctors can plan and perform implantation with high precision.
Methodology cerec MC XL Premium Package has enriched the range of dental services:
- Production of individual abutments
- Manufacture of telescopic crowns and beam structures
- Creating frames for bridges
This opens up broad prospects for those who prefer metal-free solutions. The ability to work with zirconium dioxide, ceramics and polymers makes CEREC an indispensable tool in creating durable and aesthetic structures.
CEREC technologies have also found their application in orthodontics. Creating accurate digital impressions of the jaw allows the rapid development and production of orthodontic appliances, including aligners. Such devices, made from transparent materials, have become an alternative to traditional braces.
Advantages of using CEREC for aligners:
- Reduced preparation time
- High accuracy compared to traditional methods
- Improved patient comfort
CEREC turns a long and complex process into a convenient, fast and precise dental procedure.
Options for designs and materials using cerec technology
CEREC opens new horizons in the creation and restoration of teeth, making the process fast, accurate and comfortable for the patient.
Achievements
Varieties of designs
Varieties of designs with the cerec 3D CAD/CAM system:
- Tabs
- Veneers and Lumineers
- Crowns
- Adhesive bridges
- Temporary crowns
Materials used in CEREC
Materials used in CEREC 3D CAD/CAM crowns:
- Hybrid ceramics - combines strength and aesthetics
- "E.max" - metal-free ceramics, distinguished by durability and transparency
- Composites - used less frequently due to lower aesthetics and durability
- Ceramics—including porcelain and zirconia—are known for their durability and ability to maintain performance for decades
The process of dental restoration using CEREC
First of all, the dentist prepares the tooth: removes the affected areas, and if necessary, removes the nerve. The tooth prepared in this way is ready for the next steps.
For zirconium prostheses, additional steps follow:
- Sinterization. The oven baking process strengthens the material, giving it strength and translucency, which takes about 10-15 minutes
- Glazing. Within 9-10 minutes the prosthesis acquires a natural color and shine
The process is completed by installing the prosthesis using adhesive fixing materials. This approach reduces the number of visits and treatment time, providing patients with comfort and high aesthetic results.
Stages of making a ceramic crown:
- Scanning A contrast agent is used to capture the shape accurately. A special device creates an optical impression in a couple of minutes
- Milling Then, the workpiece is selected and within 11-20 minutes the milling and grinding machine grinds out the prosthesis, bypassing the need for manual adjustment
- Modeling The dentist, using software, develops a model of a microprosthesis, taking into account the unique morphology of each tooth. Thanks to the 12x magnification, maximum accuracy is achieved. Patients can follow the process on a screen, which takes five to ten minutes
Durability of CEREC dental structures at the K+31 clinic
At the K+31 clinic, thanks to the advanced CEREC technology, we achieve record service life for dentures. Continuous research and innovation in this area have made it possible to increase their service life to 15-20 years. In addition, thanks to the high-temperature firing method, dentures retain their original functional and aesthetic properties for the entire period of operation, eliminating the risk of cracks.
The CEREC equipment used in our clinic has a complex and well-thought-out design. It includes:
- Removable instruments for precise preparation and fabrication of dentures
- Working tools that ensure high accuracy and functionality of the final product
All these processes take place within one visit, which makes treatment at K+31 not only effective, but also convenient for patients. We guarantee a personalized approach and the high level of service you deserve. We are waiting for you at K+31 to transform your smile with the help of the latest achievements in dentistry!

Quick restoration of teeth with cerecs
CEREC helps restore teeth in one visit. This system, developed by Sirona Dentsply, uses CAD/CAM technology to create precision ceramic dentures. As a result, the patient receives a crown or inlay that perfectly matches the shape of the tooth in just one visit to the dentist.
The procedure begins with choosing the appropriate color and size of the ceramic block. After this, the block is processed taking into account the individual characteristics of the patient’s tooth.
Who is cerec dentistry suitable for:
The use of CEREC is limited to only a few hours in the doctor's chair, but the results are worth the time investment. Patients leave the clinic with a restored tooth that looks and functions like a natural one.
