“In combination with the CEREC MC XL milling center, the intuitive and user-friendly CEREC 3D software and CEREC Connect the new CEREC AC represents a major step forward in computerized dentistry,” says Sirona’s CEO Jost Fischer.

As a result dentists now have access to a larger range of materials and can cater for additional clinical indications with laboratory restoration precision. The design data can be uploaded conveniently to the new CEREC Connect web portal. In addition, the CEREC streamlines collaboration with external dental labs. For example, dentists are now in a position to create temporary chairside bridges with up to four units. This significantly expands the spectrum of applications. The digital impressions and the resultant virtual 3D models are so precise that dentists can dispense completely with conventional impression-taking – also in connection with complex restorations. The CEREC AC lays the foundations for the “impression-free” dental office. The image quality is exceptionally high even in the peripheral areas. The camera is capable of digitizing quadrants in less than one minute. The cornerstone of the new digital acquisition center is the CEREC Bluecam®, which boasts an automatic image capture system, an anti-shake function, as well as an extensive depth of field. The new unit is easy to operate and – compared with other competing systems – delivers unprecedented levels of precision. The new CEREC AC® will replace the existing CEREC 3 acquisition unit with immediate effect. The CEREC AC expands the spectrum of clinical indications and sets new standards in terms of precision, speed and ease of use.īensheim, 6 January 2009.Sirona, one of the world’s leading dental equipment manufacturers, has unveiled a completely new digital image acquisition center for its CAD/CAM-based all-ceramic restoration system.
