Ceramic Reconstruction step by step
|
|
The defective filling and decay is removed.
A reflective powder layer prepares the tooth for imaging.
|
 |
- An optical 3D image is acquired with a small camera,
directly in your mouth.
- The restoration is created on the screen using the image
data.
- Diamond coated instruments mill a ceramic block reproduce
the design.
- This is accomplished during a single appointment using
Computer Aided Design/Computer Aided Manufacture (CAD/CAM).
|
 |
- After polishing, the new restoration fits precisely.
- A unique light hardens the bonding material, uniting
porcelain and tooth.
- Polishing or glazing ensures a pleasantly smooth and
natural feel.
- The color and appearance make the special ceramic material
blend with your tooth.
- Perfectly bonded porcelain ensures an extremely long
life for your teeth.
- Maximum strength, great looks!

Fillings (inlays/onlays)
|
|
After decay and old filling material is removed... |
|
|
The individually manufactured ceramic will be
fitted exactly. |
|
|
Depending on severity, the whole procedure will
last between one and two hours. |
Crowns
|
|
For more heavily compromised teeth, a traditional
treatment has been a crown restoration, which can take several
separate appointments. |
|
|
Using the CEREC method, crown restoration is
completed in a single appointment. No impressions, no temporary
crowns - no need for a second injection. |
|
|
A treatment time of one to two hours is normal. |
Veneers
|
|
Malpositioned and discolored teeth can be restored
with porcelain veneers. |
|
|
Your tooth is adjusted and a thin layer of porcelain
is bonded securely to your tooth. |
|
|
Perfect looks, perfect fit make a wonderful,
natural smile - all in a single appointment. |
