those of metal-ceramic bridges, the gold standard and has a 100% survival rates after a 40-month period
Cercon is the only zirconia with a scientifically supported
veneering ceramic concept. This means that
Cercon is the only zirconia material for which the systemic safety of ceramic veneers has been scientifically studied.
Cercon crowns and cercon bridges has flexural strength with long-term stability
Cercon CAD and CAM System
Cercon zirconia crowns and bridges is now able to utilize CAD/CAM System for smart ceramic restoration production. The Cercon CAD/CAM System is composed of:
Cercon Eye
The Cercon Eye is
part of the CAM component in producing Cercon Smart Ceramic Crowns and Bridges using the cercon CAM/CAD System. Cercon Eye is a measuring instrument that forms part of the Cercon Scanner. The Cercon Eye ensure maximum accuracy in acquiring the data for dies and jaw segments and adjacent teeth. The Cercon eye directly references the scanned segments of the master cast o that the data acquired into the system represents their actual relative positions with no deviation from the original.
Cercon Art
Cercon® art is the name of our CAD software for designing virtual crown and bridge frameworks in producing Cercon Smart Ceramic zirconia crowns and porcelain bridges. Cercon art provides sequence of steps in the dental laboratory, allowing the dental technician to design objects using Cercon Art in the same manner as with the conventional modelling tool.
3Shape Scanner
The 3Shape scanner is an advance 3D scanner that acquires data from prepared dies and segments of the master cast at high precision. The scanned data are then processed in 3Shape DentalDesigner.
The 3Shape Scanner enables simple automated calibration to ensure constant quality, fast and positioning of objects.
3Shape DentalDesigner
3Shape DentalDesigner is a flexible and customizable CAD software product used to design dental restorations. The CAD System may be used to design porcelain crowns and porcelain bridges of up to 16 units using a pre-defined library of occlusal surfaces teeth within the software or creating additional customized libraries.
