Are we able to machine thin feather margins with CEREC without chipping? Oh yes, we can! In fact, I am going to make a quality statement. We can mill a "pressable" margin with the MC XL using the EF bur system. This video will review the clinical criteria for applying a thin margin to optimize the aesthetic results. View Video

I have really grown fond of the IPS Ivocolor system. When used as a paste, low-value and high-value accents can be applied and artistically designed with one firing.

This video is my quadrant design strategy when preparing three posterior teeth including the distal occlusal stop (usually second molar). The current version of the CEREC software is performing well. When designing multiple teeth, setting the proximal contacts size and alignment to the occlusal plane will expedite the design process and final restorative outcome. Link to Video
