Bob Conte This was a new patient emergency who called at the end of the day yesterday. We booked him in a side room first thing this morning. He fractured endo treated #9 with existing implant-supported PFM #8. I was really not wild about the esthetics of #8, but we had to match the new crown to something. This is just about the only situation where BioReference is the preferred design mode.The software will "copy and mirror" the contralateral tooth and provide a perfect anatomic match to #8 with very little effort in design. The material was emax in shade A2 LT cemented with Variolink esthetic neutral.
Side note. We had a potential new employee on a working interview this morning. Very talented administrative assistant who we were trying to convince to join our team. I took her through the CEREC process and had her present during the cementation on this case. I asked her if she knew of any office in the state that could handle a single central in 90 minutes. The patient could not stop gushing about the service and the technology.
She accepted the position. CEREC... more than just a crown machine!
