CEREC
CEREC Norlane Geelong
When you are having problems with your teeth, one of the worst parts of the experience can be making several trips to your dentist instead of getting everything done in one trip.
CEREC allows you to save more time and get better results by taking advantage of advanced technology to restore/repair your teeth with a crown, inlay, or onlay.
CEREC is the shortened term for Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics or CEramic REConstruction. The CEREC technology uses CAD/CAM (computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing) to take impressions quickly and generate a precisely fitted filling so you can leave Norlane Dental Aesthetics and Implants sooner.

How CEREC works
One of the greatest benefits of CEREC is its convenience.
You can get your teeth restored/repaired during a single trip to Norlane Dental Aesthetics and Implants.
The CEREC process allows you to receive your permanent restoration right here in our Norlane Geelong office, so you don’t have to live for weeks with a temporary restoration and schedule another appointment.
In addition, your Norlane Geelong dentist and our team use digital impressions to make a mould for the filling. This is more comfortable and accurate than impressions with plaster.
CEREC restorations are able to withstand moderate chewing – yours will last for years. The lifespan of a CEREC restoration is longer than traditional restorations. In addition, the colour of CEREC ceramic is closer to the colour of your natural teeth, which will make your restoration virtually unnoticeable.
