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 to 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 colour and appearance make the special ceramic material blend with your tooth.
- Perfectly bonded porcelain ensures an extremely long life for your teeth.
