CEREC is an acronym for Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics, or Ceramic Reconstruction. This technology protects you from the hassle of visiting the dentist multiple times in order to get a dental crown. CEREC® makes use of CAD (computer-aided design) / CAM (computer-aided manufacturing) technology to take a quick impression and generate a perfectly fitted dental crown right away.
