Cerec 3D

The CEREC 3D system is a new procedure for custom-milling inlays, onlays, crowns and veneers. The CEREC 3D incorporates imaging and software components. This system enables Dr. Lederman to view, manipulate, change, and verify the design of your restoration before it is milled. Getting a crown is now a one-visit procedure.  Temporary crowns are not needed when Dr. Lederman uses the CEREC 3D system.

During the first step in the CEREC 3D procedure, a camera is used to create an image of your tooth. CEREC 3D software converts this picture into a 3-dimensional model. Dr. Lederman then adjusts the design of your cosmetic inlay, onlay, or porcelain veneer to match the shape, size and contours of your teeth.

After this model is complete, a milling machine creates your ceramic restoration. Dr. Lederman then adjusts the restoration to ensure proper fit and bite. With the bonding techniques and the precision of the CEREC 3D system, minimal amounts of tooth structure are removed. Impressions are not necessary and CEREC 3D requires only one appointment. CEREC materials are designed to match the exact shade of your teeth. CEREC restorations are composed of material that is nearly identical to natural dental enamel.
