Ok-One last thing.

Do you believe that you are able to create restorations using cerec that are as appealing aesthetically as your typical lab made?

also, is it possible for you to deal with metamerism when making cerec crowns? If so, is the type of block more important, or the painting?

thanks again

Empress is one type …
Empress is one type of porcelain that is injection molded and generally needs to be cut back with porcelain layered over it. Zirconia is very hard when fully cured, so it is fabricated in a soft state and then further fired. That can be done with stacking the zirconia or by scanning the teeth or model of the teeth and CAD/CAM milled. Zirconia cores are harder than metal, are now very esthetic, but with extra steps are more costly.

What is recommended depends on patient’s individual factors!

Porcelain fused to …
Porcelain fused to metal crowns & restorations have a thin (.5 mm) thimble of metal that fits the tooth. Porcelain is layered over it. There is a very reflective opaque layer to hide the metal and then layers with various color density and translucency to simulate dentin and enamel of natural teeth. The bond of different brands of porcelain vary with the wide variety of metals used. The ADA generally classifies the metals according to the nonprecious, low precious and high precious metal used

Advantages of CEREC …
Advantages of CEREC over Lab-Made Porcelain:
One Visit, No Temporaries to fall off, No gloppy impression materials, no second visit anesthesia shot, no second visit travel time and time out of work, more precise margins (due to direct recording of actual teeth and no impressions to distort, models that expand on setting, lab technique variables, foil seperating layer,porcelain shrinkage, etc)and more uniform predictable material since blocks are factory made (labs add layers of powder-liquid.)

Price varies from …
Price varies from dentist to dentist. Only 8% of dentists in the USA have invested in the training and cost of this equipment. In most offices, a CEREC crown, onlay, inlay or veneer is priced similar to the same procedures which normally require two visits and an anesthetic shot (needle) both times. You can call my office in New York City for my fees at 212 988-8822 or get more details on my website DrSimonRosenberg . com

How much is the …
How much is the normal cerec procedure?

Can you “Replace Fill-ins” (Sorry, im not keen on “Dental talk”

What about tooth decay and stuff. Is cerec like a one stop shop for anything not needing surgery?

Price is most important.
