How does Cerec 
work?
1. 
Scanning
Once the tooth has been 
cleaned and shaped 
appropriately for the 
restoration, a 3D scanner is 
utilized to produce an accurate 
digital replica of the tooth. This 
modern approach eliminates the 
need for the old-fashioned and 
unpleasant method of using 
impressions or molds to create 
ceramic restorations.
Using an exact replica of the tooth on a 
computer screen, the restoration process is 
designed by taking into account the 
position and shape of the surrounding teeth 
as well as your bite. The objective is to 
ensure that the ceramic tooth appears as 
natural as possible and blends seamlessly 
with your other teeth.
2. Designing
3. Fabrication
After the design process is complete, the 
shade for the ceramic will be chosen to 
match your teeth, and the porcelain will be 
cut to the exact shape using a milling unit. 
The use of the latest "Primemill" technology 
ensures that this process takes no longer 
than 10 minutes.
4. Bonding
Following the completion of the milling 
process, adjustments may be made to the 
restoration as necessary during a "try-in" 
procedure. After this step, the restoration 
undergoes preparation and polishing in 
readiness for the bonding process. For the 
bonding process, a tooth-colored cement is 
utilized to securely attach the porcelain to 
the tooth structure, creating an ideal seal 
and bolstering its strength.
5. Finishing
During the final stage of the Cerec procedure, 
the restoration will be carefully examined by a 
dental professional to ensure that it fits 
precisely in your bite and complements the 
surrounding teeth. On average, ceramic 
restorations typically take about 90 minutes, 
while a crown may require up to two hours to 
complete the entire process.
