CEREC MACHINE
At Balsam Dental, we know your time is valuable. Thanks to CEREC, we can provide our patients with inlays, onlays, crowns, bridges and veneers in a single appointment. CEREC stands for Ceramic Reconstruction and is a sophisticated system for designing and fabricating high-quality, metal-free dental restorations in a single patient visit. CEREC utilizes 3D photography and CAD/CAM technology to assist dentists in designing virtual restorations. This machine allows us to take digital impressions for restorations (which means no more gagging on impression materials!) and make precise restorations that look excellent, fit perfectly, and last a long time – all out of biocompatible, metal-free materials and all in very little time. A typical crown appointment lasts less than 2 hours, and you don’t need to return for a follow-up visit; it’s all done in one appointment.
