Single visit dentistry

From EverybodyWiki Bios & Wiki


Single Visit Dentistry allows for crowns, veneers, inlays and onlays, bridges, and implant restorations to be fabricated during a single dental appointment.[1] Traditionally these procedures take upwards of two appointments

CEREC[edit]

CEREC (Chair-side Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics) is a method of CAD/CAM (Computer Aided Design/Computer Aided Manufacturing) dentistry developed by W. Mörmann and M. Brandestini at the University of Zurich in 1980.

CEREC uses CAD/CAM technology, which incorporates a camera, computer, and milling machine into one instrument.[2] The instrument uses a specialty camera that takes a precise 3-D picture of the tooth or space to be restored. The optical impression is transferred and displayed on a colour computer screen where the dentist or staff design the restoration.[1] Then, the CAM takes over and automatically creates the restoration. The last step is when the newly created restoration is bonded to the surface of the old tooth.[1] This entire process is completed in a single dental appointment.[1]
