All-ceramic, chair-side computer-aided design/computer-aided machining restorations.
An update is given on the research and development of chair-side all-ceramic CAD/CAM restorations. The Cerec CAD/CAM technology now has close to 8000 users worldwide. Recent improvements provide a sufficiently user-friendly handling of all components to accommodate the user with ordinary technical skills. CAD/CAM technology using non-metallic esthetic materials is increasingly gaining importance in restorative dentistry.
