CEREC Chairside Dental Treatment: Advantages Over Conventional Care
CEREC Chairside Dental Treatment: Advantages Over Conventional Care
CEREC (Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics) revolutionises restorative dentistry by allowing same-day, high-quality ceramic restorations. Here's why CEREC stands out:
1. one-visit convenience
- Speed: Traditional crowns or inlays/onlays often require two or more appointments spaced weeks apart. With CEREC, patients leave with a finished restoration in a single visit-no temporary fillings, no return trips.
- Comfort: Fewer injections, less chair time, and no annoying temporaries translate to a far more pleasant patient experience.
2. digital precision
- Intraoral scanning: High-resolution digital impressions eliminate messy putty and minimise gag reflexes, capturing every detail of the preparation.
- CAD/CAM Design: Computer-aided design ensures restorations fit precisely to the tooth's contours, optimising marginal seal and reducing micro-leakage.
- Milling Accuracy: The on-site milling unit carves the restoration from a solid block of dental ceramic with micron-level precision.
3. superior material: dental ceramics vs. composite fillings
Property | Dental Ceramics | Composite Resin |
---|---|---|
Strength & Durability | Highly fracture-resistant; excellent for heavy chewing surfaces | Prone to wear, chipping, and shrinkage over time |
Aesthetics | Translucent, lifelike colour match; resists staining | Can discolour and stain; less natural translucency |
Biocompatibility | Inert, tissue-friendly, minimal plaque adhesion | Some resins may cause mild irritation in sensitive patients |
Longevity | Designed to last a lifetime when properly cared for | Typically lasts 5-10 years before replacement |
4. lifetime longevity of digital inlays/onlays
Ceramic inlays and onlays crafted via CEREC are not only exceptionally strong and aesthetic-they're built to last. With proper oral hygiene and routine check-ups, these restorations can endure for decades, effectively a "lifetime" solution that preserves more natural tooth structure than full crowns.
