The CEREC system has been in use for over two decades. Currently, more than two million CEREC dental restorations (i.e. Crowns, Onlays, and Inlays) have been completed worldwide and the number grows everyday. The beauty and strength of bonded porcelain/ceramic materials have long been recognized as a superior method for dental restorations.

CEREC technology allows us to create Crowns, Onlays, and Inlays in a SINGLE VISIT!


Our CEREC system provides patients with exceptional cosmetic results.

We use specialized computer technology (CAD-CAM) called a CEREC Machine. It was first developed in Switzerland in 1985, and today the technology is in its third generation of development. It is a combination of a computer, camera, and milling machine that can mill a block of porcelain/ceramic into the required dental restoration with a very precise fitting.

Studies show that a tooth restored by the CEREC system has 103% to 115% of the strength of a "virgin" tooth!

It is a combination of a computer, camera, and milling machine that can mill a block of porcelain/ceramic into the required dental restoration with a very precise fitting.

Dental restorations are designed with a Computer Aided Design (CAD). This program will match the size and shape with the natural teeth, and work to provide an ideal bite. Once the design is completed, Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM) creates a precise restoration using two high-speed diamond burs that work simultaneously to mill the restoration out of a solid block of porcelain/ceramic.

The CEREC dental restoration is then bonded into place using state-of-the-art adhesive materials that actually strengthen the tooth. We can create any type of dental restoration using the CEREC system including crowns, veneers, inlays, and onlays that can be matched to the exact colour of the other teeth.
