The first step is to remove all decay from the tooth. The doctor will then shape the tooth in preparation to take a digital picture. The tooth is then sprayed with a very fine powder. This allows the digital camera to take an acceptable image. Once this image is captured, the tooth will appear on a computer screen in 3D. This will allow the doctor to design the restoration right in front of you. Once the design is completed, the CEREC will mill the restoration. This step takes approximately 15 minutes. You can actually watch this process if you would like. When the restoration is finished milling, the doctor will place the restoration. The entire process should take just over an hour.
After images of your teeth are taken with the CEREC 3-D camera system, the software creates virtual impressions of your teeth. The software also uses biogeneric comparisons to calculate the shape and size of your surrounding teeth, making restorations that fit the space precisely. Next, the CAD software used to tweak the virtual restoration, and then the image is sent to the in-house milling machine to create your crown
