How does it work?

  1. First your existing tooth will be prepared by removing any existing fillings or crowns.
  2. We won’t need to take any impressions of your teeth. Instead, we’ll use a CAD/CAM system to take a scan of your tooth and create a 3D digital image.
  3. Using the image, your restoration will be designed and then milled for you in the surgery within just a few minutes.
  4. There is no need for a temporary filling or crown as your new CEREC restoration will be fitted on the same day.
  5. Your restoration will bonded to your tooth with a dental adhesive.
