CEREC
With the CEREC system, we offer you state-of-the-art dentistry that is precise, efficient and convenient. CEREC (Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics) enables dental restorations to be produced directly in the dental practice – without having to go through an external laboratory. Thanks to computer-aided design/manufacturing (CAD/CAM) technology, you benefit from dentures that fit perfectly and can be used immediately.
Basic principle of CEREC technology
CEREC focusses on digital precision:
- Digital impression: Instead of unpleasant impression materials, your dental situation is captured with a 3D scanner.
- Computer-aided design: The dental prosthesis is designed and customised on the screen.
- Direct fabrication: A high-performance machine mills the dentures directly in the practice from a ceramic block.
- Insertion in one session: The treatment is usually completed after just one appointment.
Areas of application of CEREC
The versatile technology is ideal for:
- Inlays and onlays
- crowns
- veneers
- Partial crowns
- Small bridges
- Temporary restorations
Whether you are looking for functional stability or aesthetic perfection – CEREC offers you an optimal solution.

The CEREC treatment procedure
- Digital image: Your dental situation is precisely recorded using a 3D scanner.
- Design: A model of your denture is created on the computer and discussed with you.
- Manufacture: A ceramic block is milled directly in the practice for a precise fit.
- Try-in and insertion: The finished denture is checked for fit and permanently inserted.
Costs and reimbursement
The costs for CEREC dentures vary depending on the scope of treatment:
- Inlay/Onlay: 500 – 800 €
- Crown: 500 – 1,000 €
While statutory health insurance companies generally only reimburse a proportion of the costs, private insurance companies often cover a larger proportion. The investment in CEREC is worthwhile due to its quality, precision and longevity.
Materials and quality
We use high-quality ceramic materials for your dentures, which offer the following advantages:
- Wide range of colour options: Perfectly matched to your natural tooth colour.
- Durability: High resistance and long durability.
- Biocompatibility: Particularly well tolerated and suitable for allergy sufferers.
