title: Digital impressions--easier than ever.
abstract: The technical features of the new Cerec Bluecam greatly simplify the optical impression-taking process and allow the dentist to concentrate on the patient and on the clinical aspects of the procedure. The level of precision attained with the Cerec Bluecam compares very well with the results achieved with laboratory scanners. With Cerec Bluecam, digital impressions become a clinical reality even for laboratory-made indirect restorations.
