Use of the CEREC CAD/CAM technology

At Bucharest British Dental Place Clinic, we are proud to offer you the CEREC CAD/CAM system, an advanced technology that has revolutionized dental restorations. CEREC, which stands for CEramic REConstruction, is a computer-aided design and manufacturing system, abbreviated as CAD/CAM, which allows for dental restorations such as crowns, onlays, inlays, bridges, and veneers in a single visit.

With this technology, a digital camera captures an accurate impression of your mouth, eliminating the discomfort of traditional impression methods. These images are then used to design a custom restoration using specialised software. The digital impression is then sent to an integrated milling unit that shapes the restoration from a high-quality ceramic block.

Using the CEREC CAD/CAM system has several advantages for you:

  • Time-saving: Restorations are done in a single visit, eliminating the need for follow-up appointments.
  • Comfort: The absence of traditional impressions means less discomfort and inconvenience for you.
  • Precision: The restorations are digitally designed to perfectly fit your mouth, ensuring optimal fitting.
  • Durability: Ceramic restorations are sturdy, wear-resistant, and have a natural appearance.
  • Aesthetics: Restorations are crafted to match the color of your natural teeth, offering a visually pleasing result.
