CEREC(R) CAD-CAM ceramic restorations. A case report after 5 years in place

At least three different techniques have been described for preparing computer-aided designed (CAD) and computer-aided manufactured (CAM) inlays and veneers. This paper details a clinical case in which 13 Cerec CAD-CAM inlays have been in function for five years. The Cerec--System produces ceramic inlays which are designed, fabricated and placed during one appointment. Advantages and system-related limitations are discussed.
