CEREC Upgrade Improves Patient Service at Center for Family and Cosmetic Dentistry in Columbus, OH

    COLUMBUS, OH, May 11, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- CEREC is the industry leader in same-day dental crowns using CAD/CAM dentistry. The newest upgrade to the CEREC machine at the Center for Family and Cosmetic Dentistry allows imaging so precise it can be used for planning clear braces treatment with Invisalign. Faster processing also allows for less wait time for crowns.

CEREC is a marvel of modern day dentistry. CAD/CAM stands for computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing. Dentists use a special camera to scan a patient's teeth, then design dental crowns, dental veneers, tooth-colored fillings, and more on the computer. These designs are sent to a computer-controlled milling machine which constructs the restoration out of blocks of ceramic.

Benefits of the newest CEREC upgrade:
* More precise imagery
* Compatible with Invisalign
* Dust-free camera
* Faster milling
* Ability to work with metals as well as ceramic

"We have gotten great results with CEREC over the years, and patients love the convenience of being able to get dental crowns the same day. They also like not having to bite down into impression material."
